New to dubai, looking for friends


Anonymous [color=darkblue]Hello everyone,
I just moved to Dubai. I'm 36/male and work for an Oil company. I live alone here and I was looking for some friends here for company.
But first, can some one tell me where I can find a good book shop. Sitting at home alone and staring at a telly is no fun. I would rather read.
Also if there are some anglers here, could you tell me where I can get some decent beach casting done around dubai
Thanks
Jay

Anonymous Hi everyone in Great Dubai! My name is Ricardo. And, yes...I am from Brasil. We love, live and wake up every morning thinking of football. I am a freelance journalist. And in Dubai, there will be a fantastic and important event on football: THE FIFA UNDER 20 WORLD CUP. And I plan to be there. But, as things do not move always as we plan, I had a set back. I am extremely happy to be able to go so far away from my country. I manage to get the accreditation to work, and even got some money to buy the ticket for the airplane. A family of Brasilians in Dubai was expecting me. But they were allocated to Qatar, and left me suddenly with no where to go. So, I am asking if anyone in Dubai is able to help me out with accomodation( of course that having a brasilian footballl journalist is not a bad idea!). I need really some ideas on how to stay, because if not I will not be able to come to Dubai, as my budget is brasilian, and the prices here are extremely low, compared to anywhere else in the world( take out Bolivia, India and Afeghanistan...). So, people of Dubai, any student wanting to share a place, any journalists wanting to meet nice people from Brasil, any one for adventures ? My mother will be happy to talk about how good, great, nice, polite, intelligent, sweet, clean, smart, honest, cute, interesting, bright, correct and organized I am. She will tell you even that I do not snore when I sleep. So, jokes aside, thanks to all of you, and do forgive me, but I am so excited to be the only Brasilian to be at this championship, so, only solving that accomodation problem, I might be able to be there. All the best and if you want to write me, I am at: I know that Dubai people love Brasilian football. This is your chance to ahvea good connection ( I am a friend to Ronaldo and Rivaldo, and also Roberto Carlos!) ! Bye, Ricardo Andyba
Hi, Jay!

Jamal there are two libraries that i can remember right now one is located in sharjah on al khan road right after the expo while you are heading to al khan beach i forgot the name but if you driving by there an look on your left side youll see it. and the second one is located in jasmine building complex on the road heading to dubai cinema its opposite the Islamic insurance company its called dubai library. well i aint good in giving out directions an shit but if you need any mutha fucking assistance let me know aight. Anonymous [color=darkblue][/color] Hey guys,

Andyba, would that be Magrudy's you are refering to ?

Jay Jamal yo Ricardo Just wanna ask you do you got a sister or something if you do an you bring her along with you then you can sleep on my couch while i get it on with her if you cool with that let me know aight we can arrange something an you can come sleep over my place but only with your sister waiting for you reply Andyba
Yes, Magrudy's ;)
Have you been there?
What kind of books do you read? Anonymous [color=darkblue]Hi Andyba,
Yeah I did visit the Magrudy's at City Centre. They have a fairly decent collection on books but nothing like what you get in book stores in Europe. Lots of fiction and bestsellers but limited range of non-fiction.
I was searching for some books on management, philosophy and other such frivolous stuff. Ha ha.
Are you a book reader ? :)
Jay[/color] snyder You Might even wanna check out Bookplus in Lamcy Plaza. I even managed to find abridged versions of Marquis De Sade's Texts over there. :shock: Andyba Am I a book reader? hehe
I would like to say so but lateley I'm too busy doing other things... :\
Though I'm into management and philosofy as well. :)
Don't have to many books here...
BTW if you would like to exchange some books, you can write the titles of the books you have in this forum:
And I will post my books, so it will be a beginning. :)
