- Undergo thermal screenings at the airport.
AFTER ARRIVAL

It was the afternoon and we were exploring the depths of Dubai. The driver told us to hold on tight because he was about to take us on a roller-coaster, but of course, I couldn’t let the moments pass undocumented. So whilst we rocked through the dunes, we came across vast acres of this. Absolute serenity from the busy Dubai city."
