Jebal Ali, UAE
Hi,
travelling off to Jebal Ali, UAE on friday, going to be on a 6 month internship. first timer to the UAE. If anyone could give me a heads up on what things I could get up to after work- what are the functions and social culture of the expats here/locals?, local transport (will be on budget-cant get a car), I also need to get a local phone contract-recommendations?
much appreciated. X
