I couldn't find a single studio in Dubai or Abu Dhabi. The only studio was in the royal palace.

can i take this job ...?

questions

Q. will you help me and pretend i have any qualifications what so ever so i get the gig ?

Q. can i get paid monthly in gold bullion ?

Q. can i get paid twice as much as everybody else because i asked nicely ?

Q. can i work there without actually having to move to the desert ..?
( my local morning school run kinda kills me moving more then 10klm from home )


seriously folks if your not to sure where you life is going , I am usually the last person to say take a audio teaching gig ..

but as i said to mark the first time he mentioned he was considering trying dubai on for size ..
If you can get it and its the right time in your life .. F@#$ing run to the airport .
Living another way, in another town so different to australia AND get paid is totally a win win .

I've done my 2 years here which was my original plan and I'm moving back home to Byron Bay in Sept. It's been an incredibly rewarding experience all round.
