Networking 🤙 Looking for a hangout buddy tbh

0 Upvotes

Hii kinda bored and friendless and looking for someone to make the most of the city with. I see a lot of events and deals around the city and don't feel like checking it out alone.

For reference, im in my mid 20s, female, plus size, south asian, and a foodie. I live in the city. Always down to do anything fun.

I'm open to everyone but i'd prefer someone close to my age.

Also no weird advances I beg

29M, Gujarati | New to Abu Dhabi and hoping to meet someone genuine

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone! 😇

JSK 🙏🏻

I’m a 29-year-old single Gujarati guy who recently moved to Abu Dhabi. Thought I’d give this a shot and see if I could connect with someone on here.

A little about me — I work in Mortgages, enjoy travelling, long drives, swimming, exploring new places, and trying out good food spots. I’d describe myself as easygoing, family-oriented, and someone who values honesty, mutual respect, and meaningful connections.

I’d love to meet a Gujarati or Indian girl with whom I can have good conversations, share similar values, and hopefully build something meaningful over time. I’m open to getting to know each other naturally and seeing where things go, with the intention of finding a genuine, long-term relationship if we’re compatible.

I know Reddit might be an unconventional place to meet someone, but I figured it’s worth putting myself out there rather than leaving everything to chance. 😅

If this resonates with you, feel free to drop a comment or DM me. Happy to start with a conversation and take it from there. 😊

Medical 🏥 Botox, UltraCol & skincare recommendations

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking to put together a skincare and aesthetic treatment plan over the next year and would love recommendations for genuinely good clinics in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, ideally based on personal experience rather than Instagram advertising.

I’m particularly interested in:

Botox: A really good injector who understands facial balance and achieves natural-looking results.

UltraCol: I’ve been trying to find clinics offering this treatment in the UAE but haven’t had much luck. Has anyone had it done here, and where?

Skin quality: Treatments for texture, pores, glow, hydration and overall skin quality.

Other aesthetic treatments: Anything you’ve personally tried and would genuinely recommend for improving your skin and overall appearance.

I’d especially appreciate recommendations for specific doctors or practitioners, rather than just clinic names. If you’ve had treatments done yourself, I’d love to hear about your experience, results and approximate prices.
Also interested in hearing which treatments you think are genuinely worth the money and which ones are overhyped!
Thank you!

Careers 💼 Expected salary for a British early years teacher in Abu Dhabi?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m relocating to Abu Dhabi from Qatar for work, and my wife is looking for a teaching job there. I’d love some realistic salary expectations from people who work in the sector or have recently been through the process.

Her profile:

British teacher, Early Years

9 years teaching in Qatar

2 years teaching in the UK

Fully qualified (QTS/PGCE)

Our situation:

Family of 4 (2 kids)

My package starts at roughly AED 19,000/month all-in, so her salary and any benefits will decide how comfortable our budget is, especially for rent and school fees

Questions:

What monthly salary range should an experienced EYFS teacher with her background expect at a mid-tier vs. top-tier British school in Abu Dhabi?

Are salaries typically quoted as basic plus allowances (housing, transport, flights), or as a flat package?

Do most schools offer a child tuition discount for staff kids? How much is it usually, and is it capped at a number of children?

Is housing allowance usually paid on top of salary, or is it already included?

Any schools you’d recommend (or avoid) for good pay, stability, and a decent work culture?

Anything I should know about ADEK teacher licensing and how long it takes to get cleared?

Any real numbers or experiences would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance!
