Hiya!
 
Hiya,

I'm Rachel, I'm 26, and currently in Dubai as part of my round the world trip. Despite the fact I'm loving the place atm, as well as my two friends are who I'm with, I've had a couple of very embarrassing moments here and this morning wish clean knickers would come out the wall like loo roll (two months into our trip now)...

Anyway, take care and I hope to speak to some of you on here,

Rachel x

Thanks! We're staying in a hostel in the centre of Dubai until Thursday night, because we're trying to keep things on the cheap!
