Dubai sounds just lovely.
I wonder why, in Heaven's name, would an unaccompanied woman travel to one of these hell holes?
There is currently a FReeper female traveling alone over there. She was going to be in Kuwait then in the UAE and then the Phillipines. She was a little concerned with the UAE. Needless to say, her family and some of her FReeper friends are less than thrilled with the situation. We will all feel a lot better when she comes back later this month.
