Dreaming of Dubai…dreams turn to REALITY!!

There are days that are usually few and far between in your life, where you sit back and can say with a sigh of both reflection and satisfaction – I never thought I would be here, but here I am. Although strangely, this has happened to me in two consecutive weeks!! My dreams have become a reality.

Firstly, I completed two bachelor degrees (law/arts) – I never thought I would get through it, but God got me there! Secondly, I WON A TRIP TO Dubai!!!!! Yes, that’s right, Eat Pray Workout is going to DUBAI!!!!!! I won the competition to go to Dubai with 20 other Nuffnang Australian bloggers and the love of my life, Reis! A completely paid for trip – flights, accommodation and tours. Talk about excited – I was jumping up and down with muffled screams of excitment bubbling over – like a kid in bed waiting for santa on Christmas eve!!

The competition was for Australian bloggers to enter a  picture, a piece of writing or a video answering ‘what do you dream of in Dubai?’. I decided to make a video, which you may have seen pop up on my Facebook page. Check out my winning video – Dreaming of Dubai:

I had a lot of fun making this video and I am now tempted to consider a youtube channel to accompany the blog…what do you think? Would you watch it?

Needless to say Reis and I are feeling great about this trip, it is such a blessing and like I said in the video – it really is the perfect timing for me to have a holiday! My beautiful man really deserves this trip for all the help he gives me with my blog – assistant photographer and cold-food eater when I am photographer. He has also been a massive help supporting me to the end of my uni days.

So tell me, have you been to Dubai? What did you love? Or what do you dream of seeing there?

PS. This is what I loved our hot air ballon trip, the pool, the hotel and the Safari.
