ok, I haven't added in -- I'm not a beach person either, more a mountains guy or history nut. So dubai has nothing to offer me personally

But, why go from the UK to Dubai? Is it cheaper than Spain or Tunisia or Greece?

For most Brits (and most other Expats) its the tax break and job market.

There are about 250,000 Brits here and many are happy to be here.

I highly doubt it’s cheaper than Spain, Tunisia or Greece. It does have a certain clientele of aspiring deal makers and entrepreneurs consistent with Dubai’s goal of becoming the middle east’s business hub. I liked it since it was 1-hop from Baghdad for an R&R.
