Hello fellow couchsurfers, hope you're wonderful. I'm Angie fr a southern, traditional, & historical pt of Charleston, South Carolina, USA. I was blessed w/ the opportunity to see the world as a flight attendant for UsAirways (now American) for 11 years. I celebrate my 40th birthday in June. In 2009 my brother passed & I had to quit a career I loved to care for my 73 yrs old mom during treatment of advanced breast cancer. She celebrates her 7th bday this July. Praise GOD. So she's finally at a place in her life where she's healthy & gained her independence. In 2012 I fell in love with Dubai at The Eagles concert. I have been there more than once bc I met a guy. TOO bad he didn't last lol. So I've never been shown the magnificent sites. I saw lots of local futbal, many nightclubs but never got a chance to go to Abu Dhabi, shop in exotic markets, ride a camel, safari desert, ski in the Mall of the Emirates.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im so excited to start this new chapter in my life. I'll celebrate my 40th year on this amazing planet & I want to start a career again & live & breathe Dubai. I want to learn Arabic & I want to truly experience Dubai from persons that know 1st hand day to day life. Even though I'm Christian I'd love to be educated on Islam. I'm living in a place that's got history but doesn't offer alot of diversity & culture. Dubai has every walk of life & every culture imaginable. I want to soak it up like a sponge. Not just Islam but I'm fascinated by all the cultures & religions there.
