This is what kills me about people saying they could never live in the Middle East because it's too hot. Right now it's 104 with a feels like of 118. BUT the city is built for it so you virtually never have to park in one of those ridiculous parking lots. It's almost always parking garages - still stifling but at least your steering wheel isn't on fire when you try to drive away. And then we have the most spectacular winters...

I love the Middle Eastern weather. Scorching but dry, not humid. And there always seems to be a little breeze. I'm off to Morocco in a few weeks and it's 107 there now. Loved summer in Turkey, Egypt en Tunisia. I've never been to Dubai though, really hope I get to go there any time soon!
