Life as controller in United Emmirates ?

Hi,

just wondering what life would be like as an expat ATCO in the United Emirates ?

I guess the country has evolved to a modern society, whilst tradional arabic traditions still live strongly in the streets...

How is it to live there with your spouse outside of work-hours...can women move freely and uninhibited ? Thisis one of her worries, should it ever come to moving there...

Hope anyone of you living there can shine the light on the current atmosphere...

Thanks

Your wife should have no fear. This is not Saudi.

As for the rest; post specific questions, or PM me.
