My first time in United Arab Emirates

I’ve been in the UAE for a vacation last January 2010 for the first time, which was the best one I’ve ever had.. I really loved everything about this city, culture, weather, people, cars & of course MONEY!

They have money and they know how to spend it, which I find so attractive!!! I’ve learned many thing from their culture, I also tried some.. like their clothes style and the way they wear Henna on there feet, it’s pretty cool!

We live in Abu Dhabi by the way, the capital of the UAE. It’s a very high classy city, living there is so comfortable. It’s my parents style, while we "kids" loved Dubai more, where it’s crowd and noisy.

I did visit many nice places and sites & recorded videos as usual, my favorites ones are:

 

 

I wished many of you friends were there with me, so many things reminded me of each one of you. Like Shopping reminded me with my friend Maiss, the beach reminded me with Eslam and so on…

The great Burj Khalifa was a breath taking for sure, starting from the flight view:

 

 

The moment I saw the Dubai fountain for the first time, I had a really strange feeling and my reaction was showed as tears, I still don’t get it, but I’ve never felt this way before. Here is one of the shows I’ve watched and fell in love with:

 

 

One of my favorites parts was the day I went to Microsoft Dubai, I felt like a VIP, I really thank daddy and family big time for this great day, though we got lost (and he got mad) but it was worth it. I had a nice meeting inside the office.

I just can’t wait to get there again!

Me in Microsoft Dubai office!

My name is Baraah Omari, I’m a student in Yarmouk university – Jordan. I’m a Microsoft passionate since a quite long time, I’m a .net club member as well in Yarmouk university .net club. I keep myself in touch with many MSPs, MVPs and any big passionate about technology all around the world.

I once contacted Microsoft in Dubai – UAE & I had a great chance to be in the office with some of the employees (Natasha Zaza and Renat Minazhdinov ). We had a great 45 minutes meeting that covered many topics, started with who I am, what I like, and what I want to be & ended up with a really refreshed mood that could change my life.

We discussed other things as well, like my activities in the club & the community we run, training courses, blogging and some up coming events like Tech.Ed Middle east 2010. I felt good about everything. They were really helpful and so encouraging.

I’m thankful for everyone who helped or supported me during my journey. And Special thanks to Microsoft Jordan for their unlimited support.


Cheers,
