I moved to UAE in 2008 and was posted in Al Ain. After working for one year, i was transferred to a project in Abu Dhabi. My want to stay with my parents in Al Ain meant i had to shuttle up and down from Abu Dhabi everyday, thereby dedicating 3 hours of my daily schedule to the road.

My tight schedules at work, coupled with the one day weekend has meant i have found it very difficult to have spare time off and make friends outside my job. Since i spent most of my life in India, i had to leavebehind some of my most precious friends when i moved to UAE. Though my first 2 years here have been a disappointment on the socializing front. I have not given up hope :D. Excitedly looking forward to making some real good friends here.!

I have lived my entire life in India before moving to UAE in 2008. After finishing my graduation from Bangalore, I moved to Chennai to work in a Software firm. My 24 years in India have taken me from Bihar & Jharkand in the East to Delhi in the north, Bangalore, Chennai and Kochi in the southern part of India.
