I have been living in Amsterdam for almost 11 years but many of my friends are living in Dubai and they all were asking me to join them for the New Year’s Eve celebration for many years. Finally, I landed in Dubai on Dec.28 and I was amazed to see the city. I fell in love with Dubai instantly. I visited Dubai Mall on Dec.31 evening with my family and local friends to be at the iconic Burj Khalifa. It was a great feeling.
I had a wonderful time and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I had been to many places like London, Paris, Rome and Berlin, but I found Dubai completely different. The energy, vibes and people were very different. It was the best New Year celebrations I had ever had in my life. I loved Dubai’s hospitality a lot. I had only a week this time, but I have decided to return next year again to explore the UAE.
