My Honest Experience Living In The Dubai Marina For 8 Months 

Watching this from Dubai Marina across from JBR as I look at real estate to relocate here later in the year. Thanks for the insight.

Nice clarification on the environment. Greatly appreciated!

Great video, very informative. That’s how living in Florida Las Olas was very touristy, next to lake and ocean. Only downside was after living there for a year I was ready to be back near nature!

Hey Rasmus. Thanks so much for your effort and content it’s been so helpful. I must ask what has been your experience been in creating a new business network in Dubai ? Has it been fruitful trying to penetrate markets ? We are looking to move. I am torn between moving to Texas and Dubai. We have been to both I was in Dubai last year August and we absolutely loved. I’m interested to know what has been your business journey. Has your business grown since moving ? I look forward to hearing back from you 😉

Hey, follow Dubai (would be) resident here! Having spent some time in the Marina, I agree with your points. Super convient and nice overall. Though the area is a bit on the crowed side, it's still possible to have a quiet place. I stayed at 2 places in the Marina earlier this year. In one of them, in Murjan tower, I was facing the street and I could hear cars constantly till very late. But in the other one, Delphine tower, it was fairly quiet and with a slightly nicer view (blue-ish towers rather than the pale yellowish facades of JBR buildings), while just being a minute or two away from the main area. That was a nice combo. Traffic wise, is there any area that you know that isn't affected by this? It seems to me that it's a problem pretty much everywhere interesting in Dubai in peak hours. To me the biggest weak point of the Marina, but that's unfortunately almost everywhere the case in Dubai, is greenery. I'm currently staying at the Dubai creek, my apartment is facing a park with grass, that's very refreshing. As I'm spending most of my day at working from home like you, seeing the greenery outside really makes a difference. Do you know of other neighborhoods which have a decent park? Keep it up with the videos, that's good job!

I like more city views than ocean views!! City views it’s like u watching Christmas tree!! Ocean views is like watching sky!!

It's also ridiculously expensive for any kind of alcohol, beer. Even food in the restaurants is rather ridiculously priced. Overall it's miles and miles better living in any southeast Asian country. The quality of life is much higher, the climate is much better, the people are much more friendly. It's very very difficult to make any arguments for living in Dubai, compared to Asian countries

Hello from Canada. Great video. Where would you suggest moving after the first year spent at Marina. Obviously it depends on your job/ school, budget etc but still generally speaking where you would like to move? Would it be something like JVC, ARJAN or more like AL JADAF?

Hi Rasmus, thanks for the video! I have two quick questions, I'd appreciate so much if you could bring me some light here: 1. What buildings would you recommend to rent a studio / small apartment for a year? Taking into account location, quaility of staying and freedom. Budged 110 AED/year aprox. 2. About dating, what if you met a woman you like and want to bring her to your place? Does these giant buildings with security allow that? I heard they changed the law and now is Ok, but just to confirm.

I stayed there for a couple of weeks, it's just too damn hot to enjoy. It's a real shame as it's quite nice the design of it and the walkways around the water etc. It's just so hot that it's not possible to enjoy it.

Hey Rasmus, Thanks for your great advice and descriptions :) I am moving to Dubai from Europe in one month and I was recommended Marina pretty much. Same as you report, I feel it may be too busy for my taste, as I am not too much into going out to bars or restaurants but more into walking around, nature and more "local life". Would you recommend a different area not far from Marina? My job will be based in Jumeira Islands... Jumeira Village would be something to consider or do you find it too far or isolated for a daily life quiet routine? May see you around if still in Dubai soon :) Take care and thank you! L.

What’s jbr compared to the Marina? It’s on the ocean? It just maybe more expensive than the Marina and less tourists???

Please make videos when you walk around

Great Video, Man. Thanks! I am moving to Dubai in August and this video helps. Do you mean 50k AED per year or 50K USD per year? And what resources did you use for house hunting? Thanksssss

Could ypu create a telegram chat for all the boys in Dubai to talk, connect and give tips?👍👍

Hej man, I assume you spend the year there, not just a few month. How is it in summer? Do you even go outside or just spend inside with the AC? Or just go outside in the evening? Which months do you like most, and which least?

I have interest in retiring in Dubai... I would be moving there from the US The Dubai Marina has been highly recommended by many friends who have moved to Dubai in the past from the US. What is your opinion on retiring in Dubai?

Where did you live when you lived in Marina?

What areas would you move to - if you decide to leave the Marina?

First

Hi Rasmus. Why are you spending 60k a month just to sit in an expensive place? Are you actually meeting clients there or something? To work virtually and choose the most expensive location seems completely insane...

Come to Silicon Oasis

Wait $50k a year????😳😳 That's a lot

Can we have an apartment tour?
