DUBAI - been there? worked there?

[PAID VACATION]

I read the other dubai threads, mostly little trips and people talking who havent been there.

Has anyone stayed there for longer than a week? Does anyone work there currently? Has anyone worked there?

I am trying to get together a proposal for a fellowship there, but I just want to ask.

I hear its very hot there, and there are rich people too!

I want to go be hot and rich.

45-50 degrees celcius in the summer. No kidding.

If you go, you had better get sent there by a foreign company.

Have fun otherwise.
