My Thoughts On Dubai

TRAVEL Det er ved at være et par uger siden, at vi var i Dubai og selvom det ikke var alt, hvad jeg forventede, så var det nu stadig en dejlig tur. Der er dog et par ting, der er værd at tage in mente, hvis man skal besøge Dubai.

• Planlæg turen. Book de ting I vil foretage Jer hjemmefra. Det vil spare Jer en hel del penge og I risikerer ikke, at der er fuldt booket ligesom vi desværre gjorde. 
• Dubai er ikke for os fattige studerende. Hvis man ønsker den fulde Dubai oplevelse, så kræver det altså en god sjat penge. Jeg ville i hvert fald gerne have haft lidt flere penge på lommen.
• Sidst men ikke mindst, så er skikkene altså anderledes end herhjemme. Vi vidste naturligvis godt, at det var et muslimsk land, men det krævede en del tilvænning ikke at holde i hånden og kysse i offentligheden. Jeg vil i hvert fald ikke anbefale Dubai som destination til en bryllupsrejse! 

Men selvom min oplevelse i Dubai hverken var eksklusiv eller luksuriøs, så var det en dejlig ferie sammen med min kæreste. Vi erfarede dog at vi som par nok er mere til afslappede ferier, hvor man bare kan dase ved poolen eller på stranden. Mikkel nød i hvert fald ikke at fise rundt og se ting ligeså meget som jeg gjorde. Så en anden gang vil vi helt klart planlægge tingene anderledes, så der er plads til at nå alt det vi gerne vil.

Translation // It's a couple of weeks since we went to Dubai and even though it wasn't all that I thought it would be, it was still a lovely trip. There are a few things I would suggest keeping in mind if you wanna go. 

• Plan your trip. Make sure you book the things you wanna do ahead of going as there'll be quite a lot of money to save. Also, you don't risk that the attractions are all booked like we did. That really sucked!
• Dubai is not made for poor students like us. If you want the full Dubai experience, I reckon you need a good amount of cash to spend. I would definitely have liked having some more bucks in my pocket. 
• Last but not least you need to remember that the customs are really different from most Western contries. We obviously knew that we were going to an Islamic country but we didn't realize just how hard it would be to get used to not kissing and holding hands in public. It's definitely not a place I would recommend for honeymooners! 

But all though my experience in Dubai wasn't exclusive or luxurious it was still a nice holiday with my boyfriend. We will be doing a bit more planning for our next trip though!
