Catching up with friends in Dubai!
Yesterday I caught up with my friend Jenny who has been living in Dubai since 2018! I first met Jenny, who is from Lexslip, back in 2015 when I arrived in Bermuda. I knew no one and very few Irish people on the island. Jenny worked in finance but I met her through someone else, but we immediately became friends. We had so many laughs and great nights out, bonding over a similar sense of humor. I was actually the one who recommended she move to Dubai at the time & she has built a really beautiful life here since. We were both single girls when we met, but now she's a mom of twins and found lovely Scottish guy. She is so humble and typical Irish, she's super successful in her career.. the first female CFO of her company & very well established. It's funny as we were talking about success yesterday and I was feeling a little upset. I don't have houses fi my name or lots of money in the bank, kids or a husband...so I got a bit emotional. But she reminded me that we all have different versions of success & that the fact right not I am making a go of starting something new is success & the fact I have the freedom to do it. Looking forward to meeting her kids on Sunday & her husband.
