About Me

My photo
Neil Roberts
Eynsford, Kent, United Kingdom
I moved to Abu Dhabi in June 2008 from Eynsford, Kent. Eynsford is a quaint, typical English village where my 250 year old home was nestled between two pubs. Abu Dhabi was quite a contrast. There is nothing much there that is more than c.50 years old. In summer it is also about 30 degrees hotter! I went to earn a bit of tax-free money (didn't really have much to show for it by the end!) and to gain some life experience (but came home with bags of this). This blog is a record of my time there, so I can share some of what I experienced.
