Dubai, One of World’s Great Urban Attractions

February 7, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

While not one of the world's largest by population cities, Dubai certainly warrants great attention due to its rapid rise from being a sleepy fishing village to now home to some of planet's most iconic attractions. My visit to Dubai was a number of years ago - the city was surely much smaller then, but still, the city felt overwhelming. As one of the great cities in the Middle East it offers non stop or one stop connection flights from most … [Read more...]

January 29, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

I was priveledged to visit Qatar several years ago on a several day stop over between some other countries in the region. I flew … [Read more...]

Why do I Travel Solo?

December 1, 2020 by Teh Chin Liang2 Comments
