Of a weeklong trip to the UAE!!! Off to Abu Dhabi tomorrow morning for over5 meetings with top notch people, whose names I will most likely be unable to pronounce and who will probably disregard anything I say for the fact that I'm A. a woman (I know this is very stereotypical- this has happened however on my first trip out there) or B. A young woman.. age like in most cultures dominates on power and knowledge so I am fine to sit back and learn as much as I can from the 4 other people on the trip all with a Senior or Director before their Title. Senior Vice President, Sales Director, Marketing Director, Senior Executive Producer, and then there's little old me... una colla camba de la jungla yendo al desierto!! Who would have thunk.. certainly not me.. but that's the beauty in all of this. You never know what to expect and you certainly know better than to think you do, because at the end of the day, we can't predict the future as much as we'd like to think we can or may be able to determine the future, I leave it up to the man upstairs and the momentum in my life at the moment.
So... bien close to 5 hours before I must awake to catch my flight, I bid you goodnight.
Abu Dhabi tomorrow, Dubai on Tuesday, Abu Dhabi on Thursday, London on Sunday.... oh and then Greece on a mini vacation ( 4 days) on the following Friday! Woo hoo.. blessings of travel and experience... I will take it all in and try to appreciate every moment. - Even the moments where I have to undergo governmental medical testing in order to receive my residents visa. -
Oh I almost forgot- I have my Abu Dhabi employment visa, and this trip is largely to get my Residence Visa ( only obtainable once you've gotten an employment one) and in order to get my residence visa, I must undergo several medical tests and ensure that I am healthy in all ways in order to reside in Abu Dhabi... Fingers are crossed. Who knows- the next entry will come from a Resident of Abu Dhabi!
good night moon.
