1. Not so many I think...
Some of my Indian and Pakistani friends accuse me of becoming too 'Desi' sometimes... However, I am a mixture of everything else but Indian...

I am dating a girl originally from Bangalore though... :)

There is a large Indian population here in the UAE!

2. Howdy! How's UAE treating you?
the only way to be toooo desi is to eat lunch out of stacked round metal boxes..

3. Multi-cultural society, one of the fastest growing economies
in the world... Low cost of living! It's great... They are even starting to sort out what it takes to become a democracy.

7. Sounds like heaven!
I know a lot of indians do live in the middle east area, but usually i hear horror stories about being treated like indentured servants...
