DH has just been offered an opportunity to go work in Abu Dhabi for a while (most likely 12-18 months as would want to return to NZ before DD1 is due to start school when she turns 5) and I was just wondering if anyone here had lived there and would mind sharing your experiences?
Financially it would be a great opportunity with a very generous salary tax free and they're offering free accomodation too, but I'm a bit worried about the heat and the social side of things for myself and the kids, as well as how restrictive life there might feel after only ever living in very liberal countries (Finland, UK and NZ) before.
If anyone can offer me any input it would be greatly appreciated
