How to Hold Dependent Visa while moving to a new company in Dubai
Hey there Creatives! I have been getting these enquiry for a while now. But it took me time to actually create a blog about it because I haven’t experience it until now. Over the past couple of years, I have encountered this scenario: Question: An employee resigned and moves to a new company, s/he has dependents under her/his visa like the wife/husband and children. So what should I do? Answer: The UAE Government has granted a “visa hold” option wherein the sponsor can keep his/her dependent’s visa be on hold – rather than cancelling it and re-apply and go through another lengthy process – not to mention the costs involved.…

DOs and DON’Ts in Dubai (or in the UAE) It’s been a long while since I first landed the UAE and in 2018 we’ve moved to Dubai.

Milk Teas in Dubai
Joining the current fad back in the Philippines, I have made my own quest of #MilkTea is life Dubai version.

The first time tapioca pearls were said to be added by Tu Tsung…

Dubai – Abra, Gold Suoq, Spices and more!
This blog post is a short photo blog of our recent visit to Dubai Creek’s GRAND SOUQ DIERA (the OLD DUBAI City Centre). It is where we ride the abra (at 1 AED per ride), a boat going to the other end of the souq and been greeted with a big tourist crowd also exploring the market. We found the Gold souq, souvenirs of all sorts, a pretty porcelain and hand crafted design plates, colorful spices, shawls, magnets and all other crafts plus more! It’s actually my second time here, and yet this time, I feel like I belong more than just a tourist from Abu Dhabi. This time I…
