I am so incredibly excited to be visiting Dubai, known as the major business hub of the Middle East! It’s certainly a city of many luxuries, and I look forward to enjoying as well as gaining extensive knowledge of their culture and business world.
We will be visiting numerous sites such as the World Expo 2020 Dubai which is the first time the Expo will be held in the Middle East. The theme for Dubai’s Expo is Connecting Minds, Creating the Future which is about the spirit of partnership and innovation of the future. We will also be experiencing L’altelier des Chefs of Dubai with our class which is so thrilling to think about. This activity is a great way to build ourselves as an FIU team as well as hone my skills in the kitchen (the very few I have lol).
I look forward to the Snow Park at Ski Dubai because I have never experienced snow before and I truly can’t believe my first experience will be in a mall in the middle of a desert, I mean pretty crazy! I also expect to see little penguins running around and hopefully I get to hug one. Also, I am thrilled about the Desert Safari and Dinner Show which I’ve heard is such a lovely experience and I can’t wait for the camels! If you didn’t already notice I love animals.
The itinerary looks so very full of adventures and learning experiences I’ve always dreamed of! This trip will enhance my global citizenship by offering a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience in an incredibly short amount of time. It’s one of my favorite things to immerse myself in new cultures and I truly can’t wait for what Dubai has in store!
Until Next Time,
Andrea M.
