Dubai

In December 2022, I went on a girls' trip to Dubai with my cousin sister, my grandmother, and her sister. Having always traveled with my parents where the trip revolved around what my brother and I wanted to do, going on a trip entirely planned by two women in their 80s was a different experience entirely. Trust me when I say I have no regrets because the traveler in me loves experiencing things no matter how unique. This trip included visiting the Gold Souk instead of Ferrari World, it included a trip to the beautiful Miracle Garden instead of a sand dune safari. It included waking up at 6 and off to bed at 9. It was more of a vacation than a trip. On the last day, my sister and I did manage to experience all the "young" things we thought we had missed out on, including the Dubai nightlife and dune bashing, making it a complete wholesome girlfriend experience.
