The UAE
How do I meet people in UAE?
When we asked people living in UAE about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Expats in the UAE often join clubs and activities such as sports teams, book clubs, and language classes. These activities provide a great way to meet people and make friends. Expats can also meet people by attending events such as art exhibitions, concerts, and festivals. Additionally, many expats join social media groups and online forums to connect with other expats living in the UAE. Finally, expats can also meet people by attending networking events, joining professional organizations, and attending meetups," said another expat in UAE.
"From sailing to golf to sky diving to horseracing, Dubai is an emerging market that has it all. Wafi City is a great place for various activities such as Sport club, various bars and restaurants, mall and the newly opened Raffles Hotel. Dubai festival City housed some of the most prestigious hotels, mall and residential area as well as golf club. There loads of clubs (each country usually has their own) and activities from charity to commercial events, although you will miss nature's beauty - summers are very very hot (4-5 months)," wrote a member who made the move to Dubai, UAE.
