no just us

Im 24 and sarah is 26.

Both really excited so if you can give any advice about actually getting there and the process of making the move that would be good to
im sure sarah wopuld like to speak to you

i know theres plenty on the forum however you read that much some things what should be simple can be confusing when in our position of dont really know what to do 1st

obviously the 1st thing we want to do is visit dubai and confirm its for us

but after that if it is for us, we are the sort of people to just get on with it and not sit on it and we have often said what would we do 1st.

get in touch with GEMS and The Regent and the other education groups here and get her CV sent out to them all and see what responses you get. That is a good measure of how things will lie. At your age the two of you will love Dubai, there is alot to do. Are you married or not? can't remember!

It is a building site and the traffic can be a mare but it is very handy for the Emaar building, definately! The Greens I think is probably better than where I am which is on the land opposite. The Greens is finished so no construction noise unlike where I am. Rents - a 2 bed in my building is currently 130k. I think a 2 bed on the Greens will be more. Do a search for Better Homes Dubai to get an idea of current rental prices.

yeah we are all married up, Have a terrace house in derbyshire which we are considering keeping and renting out for a while so obviously we will have to take that into consideration.

sorry BC about visa info where would it be best to look this up rather than trawling through the forum.

Cheers

nothing to look up, you get it via your employer don't worry about that side of things for now, come out, see if you like it and take it from there.
