Hello! I'm new to blogging and new to this forum. I'm interested in learning all that I can about Abu Dhabi - the culture, the people, the 'expat' way of life -- and how to get there...from here. My soon-to-be husband has expressed an interest in relocating. I've lived in Michigan all of my life, with the exception of work assignments to other states and a spell in Mexico 20 years ago. I have two big dogs, no kids, and all of my life, family, (security) here in Michigan. I am hoping to learn everything I can about how to uproot (what I need to prepare to get there) and how to navigate a new life. I look forward to learning from all of you.
