No, I am still in London and it seems I will be spending the better part of winter- it is looking that I will down there in Feb/March.

 

Dubai is becoming expensive walahi; a moderate two bed apartment in the Marina will set you back $60k per year.

Do that Xiin. Build your network starting with the folks you work with. Make sure you join your school alumni group and professional societies like ISA or IEEE. It is powerful tool. I do get unsolicited interviews and invitations every other weeks or so. Gotta spend time on it.
