Hello,

While moving to a new country and discovering new cultures is definitely an exciting adventure, everybody experiences it differently. It can be particularly different for women, in both positive and negative ways.

What are some positive aspects about being a female expat in the United Arab Emirates?

What are some challenges in the United Arab Emirates that women face, and what are the ways to overcome them?

How is a woman's role viewed in Emirati's culture and society?

Is it relatively safe for a woman to live in the United Arab Emirates?

How would a woman go about expanding her social network in a safe way?

Are there any resources available for women to help with their expatriation (e.g. books, articles, support networks, etc.)?

Thank you for sharing your experience,

Priscilla

Dear Priscilla,

Good Day..

As seen by me with my little experience of about 2 1/2 of stay in Dubai, I have found Dubai to be quite a safe city to stay living on their own for women. I have not seen any untoward incidents or misbehavior towards Women in any of the Public Transports, shopping malls or any where..

Its so nice to see so many Expatriate girls working hard and relaxing during weekends on their own without any fear. However, its better for them to follow with Public Transport to be on the safer side. Probably because of such friendly and easy environment Dubai could be most preferable place for Girls or Single woman to work without a guardian.
