    If you bothered to look at my name and profile you would see that I am from Ireland. I would prefer to go to Europe where they have snow covered mountains, great scenery, and REAL SNOW, not in some shed in a shopping centre.

    Yep. I’ve vacation in Dubai many times. I really like it there. They have amazing architecture especially the skyscrapers. But I rather live in Laos or USA. Laos have tall jungles, misty moutains, waterfalls, blue lagoons and wild elephants. It’s more of a paradise for me than Dubai.
