Hello again all.

Well still no news about if Dubai or not!! so think that job did not happen!!
Somethign has caught my eye in Bahrain thru headhunt in the UK.

Very easy to find out loads about DXB but what are people's views on Manama?

Thanks in advance, again!!

Bahrain is a great place but what are you looking at in Manama?

I work in the design industry.. graphics amd identity design.

Sww on the Guld News that all US people have been shipped out. No mention of UK or Europeans. And i do not believe all i red in the media!!! any views on that?

Redwings

Bahrain is still full of Americans and British expats. I don`t think you`ll have problem working and living in that part of the world. I lived in Bahrain for 6 years and I loved it. It is still a good place to live. Are you single or are you planning to bring your family??

31 yr old guy with no family.... so just me!! Got no idea what will happen as my interview in DXB did not work out, did not get the job, still interested in DXB but something came up in Manama so looking at that as well.

So what is it like there for a single guy or is it very family style? i know NOTHING abut Bahrain at all. just looking for a new adventure in life!!!

You`re single and just right about the age so go for it. You can see this website and check what`s going on there.

Bahrain is expanding quite rapidly and you have alot of places to go for your night life.

thank you for that site!!!

all i have to say is it is a shame that the swimwear awards were not in Manama!!!

A lot of people have said that early 30's is a good age. so how does Manama compare with DXB or am i being dumb there?

I`ve stayed in Dubai just for a few days but I think Dubai is Excellent but expensive though. Both places would be nice but I think Dubai would be more convenient because it is an economic hub. If you want to go to the Mid East, either Dubai and Bahrain is the place.

It will be either of the two but it seems that Dubai is a lot more 'happenning' such as due to Timeout Mag having a site there etc etc.

all say DXB is the more expensive as well. I am more intent on getting in DXB than any where else hence the trip next month but if things work out in Baharin then that would be good as well.

am wittering here sorry!

Hi Joseph

I've never been to Bahrain, but it seems to me that Dubai is developing so fast that it's got to hold more opportunities for your type of work.

It's only an hours flight to Bahrain. If you're planning a trip to Dubai, why not have a little trip over there so you can compare the two?
