Watery Cervical Mucus At 4 Weeks Pregnant

# 12 Dubai / state of shock

"You can say that a shipwreck is trapped between the most extreme, zermürbensten opposites." (Continued from page 363)


culture India: India is the largest democracy in the world and a country of contrasts and apparent contradictions: Permanent road noise impinges on inner peace through meditation and yoga. Modern complex international IT companies are located within sight of überbevöllkerten, pollute the slums. Sleeping people on the roadside under a blanket vs lousy. Parties in a chic loft, with modern art, white leather couches, a refrigerator that does not (culinary) desired diffusers t and two house servants, who eat even a clock at five am somewhat prepared. Head-shaking and "yes" mean. Pleasant helpful and annoying misinformation. The weather in Chennai is marked by muggy in the summer heat and spontaneous rain, do not bring the hoped-cooling. Even if the "average" Zinder "speaks less English than expected, we come in everyday and traveling along problem, because the Indians are helpful and curious towards Westerners. There are a host of mosquitoes, monsoon rains and too many speed Breaker (herunterzubremsen Hüppeler about cars. They are, however, positioned so high and bulky and surprisingly, they are more dangerous than useful.)

Culture Dubai: Dubai is like a metropolis in the computer game Sim City. We know the trailer of the game - various documentation on Pro Sieben, Sat.1 and Kabel 1 Modern glass and steel complexes in unusual shapes are constructed from round to round. From top to bottom you ht the six-lane highway with a perfect green on the side and small cars, as if drawn on a string pesen back and forth. Here and there something about being pleasing to the Emir and the people: a modern park, a horse racing track, one and still a Palm Island (to see who really like this - at least from the aircraft), a subway system that runs along on stilts next to the highway, an oversized shopping mall (Dubai Mall is the largest store in the world with the biggest glass of the world (the Aquarium) next to the largest building the world ...). With only 15% of the local culture is also strongly influenced by the foreigners. Western sports bars, exquisite restaurants, draft Strongbow, Australian rump steak as well as tourists who are desperate with her Canon Ixus the Burj Dubai - the 818 meters with the highest usable building in the world (opening in December). Hundreds of thousands from India, the Philippines, Pakistan, Yemen, Lebanon and other countries of the Near and Middle East were recruited to build more than 40 °, the skyscrapers of the future, to clean the homes or to drive taxis. Jumeirah meet me in front of three Porsche Cayenne in turn, set with a sheikh in the elegant white robes (kaftans), plain white hat (AGAL) and a black head Mature (Guthra). Here are a Bentley, a Jaguar, a Lamborghini and an almost poor acting S-Class. 4.6% of the population are millionaires, but it felt longer. Here are the swimming pools to be cooled on the roof, bus stop estellen to 18 ° temperature and sterilized the room by the cleaning staff every two days (can the say? You know what I mean. Compared to India, I move in a permanent quarantine zone. This is no garbage, no cigarette butts on the floor, everything shines like new because it is new, I do not see a beggar.)
If you are in the game "Sim City Dubai is located, popped loose much. A taxi here to take a taxi there, without thinking of ordering the purse from the card and painlessly pay by credit card. A taxi back, or even more. Bids you get for have the finest food, in beautiful places. Fortunately for me, I know that Jan, who had just practiced in Dubai for an internship. Lucky to be a roommate was not there and I had a room with private bath and shower (and robe) and a very luxurious bed in the 27th Floor of the hotel-apartment complex of "The Place". So I could enjoy the three days and Dubai had with Jan and his other roommate Seb two players that I could show you the best places in "Sim City Dubai: Three highlights from my perspective:
  1. water pipe with grape-mint flavor and with sweet Moroccan treats with fruit, nuts and yoghurt a soft bed on the Creek consume, and give the expansion a try.
  2. stumble morning at half past six in Sarah's party to the sea in order to enjoy the 35 ° warm, almost oily water the sunrise.
  3. a beer in "The Address". Opposite the Burj Dubai (800 meters) you will find this luxury hotel. On the top floor (63rd floor) is the hotel bar (a bit too much) equipped with modern art and bric a brac. The bar is really unimportant. But the outlook is ne force. After changing to "Sim City Dubai" in the bird perspective. The houses, fountains, pools and even the Dubai Mall will appear tiny. The skyline in sight, in light of the Persian Gulf, the sea. BUT! What kind of a spear that there is about 150 meters before you? This is the Burj. Damn that thing is huge. Yes, this is a thing. This is no ordinary building more. We are on the 63rd Stock and are on a third of the height of the Burj. We can not also see with our eyes the top and bottom of the Burj. Holy Moly Shit. This has "Big Mo" ventured to the edge of possibility. I vacillate constantly between fascination and rejection.
"Big Mo "? His name is actually Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and is the emir of Dubai. Although he is only three years in power, but on the best way to do it like its predecessors: to build the city of the future. "You have to choose, either imitate you, or you can take the initiative. . We want to be pioneers "
If I, as a" see players in Sim City Dubai ", he is the umbrella body - the Master. He directs the development of the city like a puppeteer the threads. He sets the rules: He can determine the number of spontaneously leave and public holidays thinks himself new buildings and chimeras (it is ne indoor skiing in Dubai) and the hardness of the practice of Ramadan is determined by him and his police. You feel something not free, when you learn that eating, drinking and smoking during the day is prohibited in the public and for Westerners. On the other hand, it is considered very social and is popular with all walks of life and one can imagine with a view to dictators in neighboring countries, that the master of the level, "Sim City Dubai" also could be worse. To bring

the previous section to a formula:
(Culture India Culture Dubai) / (Marked in Germany) = (culture shock x 3) + Fascination + Enthusiasm + rejection
