Meet Andrea,

From Northern Ireland, at the early age of 21, without knowing anything about the UAE, she flew off to become an air hostess at Emirates ✈️ from there, she kept on traveling and living in new countries in the UAE, but also in the US with a husband and child this time, in Australia, Japan. She is now recently back in the UK, much closer to home, but perhaps this is the most challenging move. We discover that the challenges can sometimes be things that we don't necessarily think about at first, like just having to drive everywhere can block your independence.

Close to Cambridge, she shares her recommendations:

🍺 The Punter Pub 

🍔 Honest burger  

🧘‍♀️ Banatyne gym for  yoga and bodypump

and her song, Desert Rose  by Sting to dream of the Dubaî deserts
