Don't be distracted, Derelicte...

Ever seen the climax of Zoolander when he's on the runway and needs to kill the Prime Minister of Micronesia (Malaysia)?

Well this isn't really the same, except there's things here distracting me from my goal of going travelling! Namely, Dubai based companies offering potentially brilliant jobs. Now this does mean that I'd have to go back to Dubai, but I do still have a flat there (of sorts). I'd have to take all my clothes and stuff back there (I did leave an awful lot of crap there though as well so at least that would be fine).

But really, in the grand scheme of things, is Dubai really where I should be right now? There's no point trying to get business in Dubai, everything I'd do would be in Saudi Arabia, Qatar etc. Plus with an offer of commission only, yes I could make big bucks, but at the same time I could very easily waste another Dhs20k (GBP4k) and not get anywhere. Of course you could say I'm wasting around 8-9k on going travelling for 6 months, but it's a once in a lifetime kind of thing, and I will be able to get a job at the end of it.

Oh the choices! But no, I think it has to be simply, go for broke (literally!) take the plunge and do the travel. Nothing else will be anywhere near as satisfying.
