To Al Ain, or not to Al Ain, that is the question...

Post new topic

Hi Everyone,

I am a young lady from England who has recently been offered a teaching position in Al Ain but I am hesitant about accepting it.

Having visited Dubai and Abu Dhabi on various occassions, I am familiar with the customs and social life that one can have there but I am not too sure about Al Ain.

I wouldn't say that I am a total party animal, but I love socialising with friends and heading out for a good boogie every now and again - is this possible in Al Ain?  Are there many other young singletons out there or will I be in the minority?

Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks!

Nazia.

hi,

al ain is moving fast, few malls are there, good hotels for dining, spa, and gym... it is also close to dubai so you can easily go to dubai have fun there and come back to your home at al ain...

go for it.

Hey,
Im new to this site and just came across your blog. iv recently accepted a job offer in al ain but I was having the same dilemma! i love to socialise too and enjoy girls nights out! It seems like Dubai and Abu Dhabi would be the places to go for this-from wot iv read both are over an hour away from Al ain. Iv always wanted to live abroad and it will be an amazing experience-thats why I decide to accept the offer. im sure there will be lots of other ppl in the same boat too. Anyway, hope you cum to right decision soon

Hmmmm ... Honestly Al Ain is a more into family lives but for lonelly single female and male it is not that great ...not much to do , two malls , five hotels , very linmited nightclub even not easy for normal girls to go there for fun and clubbing ...

But if u like to have an easy  smoth life with no complication YES I RECOMND TO GO TO ALIAN ...

Plus u can take it as a start ..may be u move after one year to dubai or abu dhabi

I agree with the last one
