Living in and Loving the UAE

My husband Paul and I are now living in Abu Dhabi and teaching at a private school. We had a very exciting summer and then moved across the world! :) As soon as we get our apartment set up and school gets started, we will update our blog. :)

United Arab Emirates
Louisville

I am currently living in the United Arab Emirates since July 1999

My life & projects in this location:

I came to Louisville the summer I graduated from high school to start college at the University of Louisville. I married my high school sweetheart, Paul, after our first year of college. Graduated UofL with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and then a Master of Arts in Teaching.

My occupation:

2nd Grade Teacher at a private independent school for the past 6 years :)

What I like about this destination:

Has a variety of interests and activities, anything from museums and theater to beautiful parks and fabulous events. It seems like you can always find something fun to do in Louisville! :) I also love the population of Louisville, people are generally nice, fun, and sometimes even eccentric (there is a big movement to "keep Louisville weird" which I think is a fun slogan).

What I don't like about this destination:

Cold winters, seasonal allergies, and rain! I've also lived here for 10 years now and feel ready to move on, meet new people, experience a new culture, and fall in love with different landscapes.
