Hi Angela a lot has changed since we last had an exchange. My villa in Jumeirah Park is available to rent from mid/end of November. Happy to show you our villa for now. As far as relocation company, Santa Fe, DXI Logistic. Haus Haus show villas in our area. We went on property finder and had a list of villas to see and contacted the agent that way. We the.n had the same agent who took us to all the areas and we narrowed it down. Let me know what day is good. I’ll get the ladies together and see if anyone available fir drinks with husbands. Monday is mahjong. We play in the Marina. Would be a good day to meet. Let me know what’s best for you and I can take it from there. Look forward to meeting you. Kim

Hi Tracey and Cary 11am is perfect. Shall we say Wednesday 11am Marina Mall this time around and the MOE the next time. Meet at Costa then decide if we want coffee there. I actually prefer the coffee and ambience of Le Pain on the ground floor near Waitrose. Look forward to meeting you both. Kim

Hi Angela we would love to meet you. If you will have days on your own, you may want an apartment in the Marina. There are a few coffee mornings there. I know a couple of ladies who live there. I love having a villa with a pool and I’m literally 7-10 minutes from the Marina. I guess really it depends on where the business will be based. I’m a group that play Mahjong, but sure there are groups that play bridge. Happy to meet with you when you arrive and introduce you to the other ladies. Any particular questions please feel free to ask. Kim

Hi Leeann If I'm right, you arrive in Dubai tonight. There are coffee mornings arranged every Monday throughout the summer - details on the website. I believe there is also one for mums and tots at the same time. I would be happy to meet up with you at any time. I'm not sure where you are staying. If the Marina, then Dubai Marina Mall is easy or Mall of the Emirates. I'm meeting a couple of other ladies on Tuesday at 9am. Might be a little early for you, but you are more than welcome to join us. We are meeting at More Cafe on the 2nd floor at Mall of the Emirates. Hope to meet you soon. Kim ?

Good evening ladies We just moved here from the UK, the company who handled things here for us was Inchcape Shipping Service. Not sure if they deal with NZ, but I would highly recommend them. The person who headed up the 7 strong team was Farooq II. There are 2 Farooq's so you need to say II. Their number is +971 4 3345633. If we decide to leave or move, I would not hesitate to call them. Hope that helps. Kim

I know I'm a little late, but just wondered how your meet up went? I am moving to Dubai from Scotland in 3 weeks and would love to meet up with you for a coffee or something. I'm in my early 30s with a little girl who is 20 months. Sorry for the late reply! My container arrived and I have been very busy getting my villa sorted. We met up for a coffee and are meeting up for lunch on Tuesday. I must say it's nice to meet others in the same predicament. What date do you arrive? Where will you be living? We can plan to meet anywhere to suit you. Let me know when you arrive. If anyone else wants to meet up, let me know. Kim

Hi debht That would be really nice to meet up. How far is Dubai Marina Mall from you? I'm still trying to get my head around the various locations. I'm out this weekend, but available on Monday 17th if that is any good for you. I could get a taxi there so we could meet up for a coffee and a chat. Kim ?

Good afternoon. I too am new to Dubai! I have been here a week and would love to meet some new friends. I'm in my 50's, but I don't mind what age you are if you don't! I love children, mine are grown up, therefore, I don't mind meeting people with children. I live in Jumeirah Park, but can't drive yet, as I am still waiting to get my visa. Let me know if anyone is in my area, District 6. Have a good day Ladies! Kim ?

Thank you - all help greatly received. We have found a few areas that seem nice. The Agent also recommended a new area Mudon? You seem to get a lot for your money and brand new.
