Just arrived in Abu Dhabi!

[mapleleaf]

Hello all - My wife, 5-month old daughter, and I just arrived in Abu Dhabi. We don't know a soul in the city and were wondering if there is a group of Canadians that gets together who we could hook up with. If you know of anything, could you let me know?
Thanks!

Mapleleaf, looks like I'm heading to your parts in a month or so. Still waiting for final details to be taken care of but hoping it'll go smoothly. Am married but no kids. Will let you know if we do make the move there.

What industry do you work in? I'm in wealth mgt.

Take care

Hey Strikeprice - Looking forward to having you in the area. When the time comes, let me know if you have any questions about finding a place. It can be a challenge out here given the high demand for accomodations. Happy to share what I've learned.

I'm in business strategy/management consulting.looking forward to trading stories!

Hi Mapleleaf!

What's it like in AD so far? We are teachers and applying to come out there for August/September time.

Do you have kids at school and if so which one and do you like it? WHat's a good salary to make (housing and schooling would be included in our package as well as medical.)

THanks!

Have a great day!

Beth
