I want to move to Dubai.
During the Nassumit, one of the speakers was a woman that is part of the UAE government. It was clear that english wasn't her first language but she was so persuasive in making a case for Dubai that I have talked to at least 3 people who are considering moving there.
I myself would not do something that radical - purely for health reasons. But I have never been to Dubai before and in 2 days, I have been impressed by what I saw.
The one thing that impressed me in relation to the summit was how content creation focused Dubai already is. They were the first to encourage and promote the content creation summit to happen in Dubai. They are also investing heavily in that market. The lady from the government shared that the returns from that investment is already surpassing that of oil. That took me by surprise. For some reason, content creation as a form of revenue feels like it is a new industry compared to other traditional sources of media and entertainment. I didn't expect an Arab country to be interested and actively encourage it.
The fact that Dubai is near Ethiopia also makes it feel more like home.
I suspect that this will not be my only visit to Dubai in the recent future. My health and my income future will determine my frequency but Dubai is great to revisit.
