Some pictures from my recent Dubai trip are found below. These are only from the CouchSurf meeting, and I may upload some more if I deem them to be of public interest. (Mostly lit arches in sand colours...)

Dubai CS

Work in Dubai was a real drag, incredibly boring and non-constructive. It also costed our client shitloads of money, cash that I'd much rather have kept for myself! Anyway, we got out and about a bit and saw some nice parts of Dubai which is a very strange fairy land city. Everything is just surface, but still nice in some odd way. One night we saw U2 playing live at the Irish Village for example! Ok ok, it was a cover band named U-zoo or something, but pretty nice anyway :) And the irish village is basically some Irish shop front panels pasted on the side of a Tennis stadium. But it works, people are happy and we had a good time. (Oh, those pics I should really try to upload! Later maybe)

Back in Singapore I saw my doctor today about the knee. Good news is that I don't have to see him again, bad news is only that I can't do any "vigorous activities" for a few weeks. Guess those include climbing and dancing, among others...

Having a french CouchSurfer coming tomorrow, so off to bed now to be at least partly presentable tomorrow.
