hi, i have been living in dubai for past 2.5 yrs. I am a home maker and i dont go out much. i like being cocooned in home so as a result i dont have any friends here. i joined expatwoman with hopes of finding good friends who are fun loving, empathetic and honest. i am an ambivert, so i can be really fun or really reserved depending on the vibe i get and thus it is difficult for me to just go out and make friends. i would love it, if i get some guidance in this matter ... :)

Wow, ?. NY then Austrelia. Now that is cold. But I think NY is not cold if it's not wendy. Actually when I lived in Vegas, I went to Utah on a business trip and there was snow on the ground, there was even ice on I70 interstate. but it didn't feel cold. I still like coldness. I keep the AC in my apartment around 19 celcius and I am enjoying it ??. Anyway, I am in Ajman. Are you also here or some other emirate?
