My aunt is looking for work as an interior decorator here. This article just confirms my impression that the United Arab Emirates is one of the most surreal places on earth. I'd love to work there someday.
This picture, though, is what initially gave me that impression and is what still creeps me out somewhat about the place.
Maybe it's just the idea of having so much expendable wealth that if you don't have any islands to situate a resort on, just build 'em! In a bizarre, completely unnatural formation.
