We love to visit Fujairah when we can and I'm sure we'd consider living there, but what about jobs?
ReplyDeleteYou raise a good point about jobs. The population is increasing and so are the jobs in certain fields.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure whether the original post implies living in Fujairah and commuting to work for the days when work cannot be done via a computer and phone. Many are now doing this. it is a little more taxing to make the drive but lifestyle might be much better for a family.
