Hi Guys!

Sorry I havent been online for an update but here it is

Arrived in Abu Dhabi in one piece lol, Got here and realised how bloody hot 42degrees actually is!!!

One thing I will say its so cheap to live here makes me wonder if I will come back to britain,,,, for example.

20 ciggies in UK 5.66
Here a quid!!!!!!

Clothes food shopping going out is so cheap I could live happily on 300quid a month so I have no excuse not to save!

The job is going really well there more to being cabin crew than just looking good lol actually under etimated it a bit!

Well hope your all well

Bye!
