Greetings fellow UAE dwellers! 👋
Fresh expat here whose current social circle consists of my laptop and a very judgmental office plant. Looking to upgrade my friend roster from 'succulents who don't text back' to actual humans who enjoy:
• Getting lost in Dubai Mall (I've turned it into an extreme sport at this point) • Discovering hidden gem restaurants (I rate places by how dramatically the Indian uncle makes my chai) • Pretending to understand crypto while nodding wisely at cafes • Beach walks that turn into "why did we attempt this in 45°C heat" regret sessions • Failed attempts at hiking Jebel Jais followed by therapeutic shawarma sessions
About me: - Can quote every episode of Friends (yes, I peaked in the 90s) - Professional planner for brunches I can't afford - Expert at finding parking in JLT (this is my only superpower) - Will absolutely show up with Karak chai during your crisis
NOT looking for: - Crypto investment opportunities - Your cousin's real estate listings - That one guy who keeps trying to sell timeshares at Dubai Marina
If you too are wondering why making friends as an adult is harder than getting a parking spot at JBR on a Friday, let's connect! Bonus points if you know where to find the best luqaimat in town. 🇦🇪
