Ok where we are

This is me, in fact, about our team, which works tirelessly on each issue of the Russian Emirates magazine and other useful publications in Russian, so that you feel good. Immodestly? I do not argue! Of course, praising oneself somehow is not in Russian traditions, it’s not accepted, perhaps .... And so I want sometimes! Well, you see, it’s great that we are here anyway? We write a little bit about everything in the world, and you are not bored, and we are pleased that you are here on vacation in the Emirates, it’s good (UAE resident guys, do not pay attention, I’m tourists now).

Now, attention! Holders of UAE resident visas, I appeal to you. So we live and work in the Emirates, it just so happened, but for some people the UAE is the ultimate dream, almost a "promised land." A person collects money all year to look at the wonders of this region, of which there are many, buys tickets, flies with children and households to distant lands. There, where, in his opinion, it’s good, because he is not there. And then he flies in, and oh, he is already here. And he feels good too. And also we find ourselves side by side, for the company, and Russian Radio (thanks to him that it is already here too) purrs pleasantly in the car, offering to order a song for friends or get any prize you need. And again, it becomes good for a person, because he understands that just recently he flew, rode, swam into the unknown, and was practically at home surrounded by compatriots who (as it is not funny) at the same time dream of something completely different - to leave at least for a few weeks home to Moscow, Kiev, Samara, St. Petersburg, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Tashkent or Astana .... Breathe in the air, eat my mother’s and grandmother’s “pies-borscht-pickles-jams”. For a while, forget about the Emirates and not think about summer festivals, sales, work and the coming month of Ramadan, about the sea, beach and sun! Yes, it’s the last thing one wants to think about the summer sun in the UAE, because there is plenty of it all year round, and in the summer, those who have been living here for a long time want rain and mushrooms from the nearest forest. In general, the taste and color ...

Strictly speaking, the summer always reminds me of the massive migration of migratory birds. All the people of the world suddenly break loose somewhere, pack their bags and set off in different directions. See the world, show yourself. Fortunately, there are so many interesting and unknown. At least in Europe, even in Asia, even in Africa, where football fans from different countries gathered this summer. And now, what’s the most interesting, you and I, setting off for the next voyage, again think that somewhere “beyond the mountains and forests” it’s good, because we are not there, and when we arrive, we realize that it’s from our presence " there "has become a little better, warmer and brighter. Such are we humans. Forever, we are missing something. As in the song, "in the winter of summer, in the fall of spring."

Meanwhile, in the Emirates, as always, it will not be boring in the summer. Grand summer festivals will be held in the capital Abu Dhabi and in tourist Dubai. Everywhere will sound multilingual speech, music, children's laughter. The sun will give its light to everyone and everyone! Are you afraid of the heat? We will tell you how to escape from it. And for those who are always grumbling about the local “summer heat”, I dare to give a little advice - try flying in the summer somewhere beyond the Arctic Circle, where people do not see the sun for six months! There you go! Better let the sun always be! And the sky! And sea! And let everything be fine. Although no! You are already well. Are you here? With us? And it’s always good where we ALL are!

Sincerely, Elena Olkhovskaya, Editor-in-Chief
