Journey to Dubai


Traveling has always been fun, even when it may take almost a day to reach the destination. If you are traveling to a new place the excitement of discovering new things, and if you are traveling back to somewhere you have been before, the joy of seeing family and friends after a while and refreshing memories, make the journey impatiently fun.
I came to Dubai with Swiss Airline, to me one of the best airlines. (And trust me its not that expensive) I tried my best to sleep in the way to Zurich so that I can stay awake in the airport to guard my belongings.
I met a lady from Namibia who was a member of the Prisoner’s rights committee and chatting with her killed a little bit of time in Zurich airport, but apart from that I was pretty much bored. She was attending a conference supporting the abortion of death penalty law in most countries.
Thanks to the sleeping pills I slept the whole flight from Zurich to Dubai.
Dubai airport was the same. Same old things and the same cheap liquor store in Duty Free.
And at the end meeting my family after a year was the best part of my journey.
