Hi, what about now, have you found a DuBabel correspondent?

I’m a college student who grew up in Dubai, although my parents are expats. I’d love to contribute and give some insight.

Have you found your DuBabel Correspondent? I’m an expat in Dubai, United Arab Emirates for 4 years now. I love the articles here at Matador Network, contemplating on submitting drafts about Dubai, living and working here, enduring the heat in summer but enjoying the sun in winter, sand and dates (the fruit) all year long.

[...] Not quite sure the original source of the photo, but I saw it first on one of my favorite travel blogs: Matador Network. [...]

I’d love to see submissions from U.A.E nationals on the DuBabel theme…

There’s probably more U.A.E. nationals than ex-pats that would see it as an appropriate analogy. A while ago, in Sharjah (city bordering Dubai) I did see a building actually called Babel Tower and I was following the signs heading towards Lord’s Beach Hotel at the time.

You mean, there’s not a writer in Dubai who thinks the Babel analogy might be apt?

Cool idea, Tim. I hope we get to hear an on-the-ground perspective soon. Dubai is utterly mystical in my mind (only more so after seeing that wild opening photo!). I’d like to go, but am also a bit intimidated.
