Get Insta-ready…

Now that I’ve lived in Dubai for over a year, I thought it’s only right to share with you guys the most Instagrammable places so when you’re next in town (or feel like braving the summer heat) you know where to head. Dubai may appear limited in insta-worthy locations but the below is only a small selection, I’m yet to check out the bridge over the Water Canal, wonder through the Green Planet, snack in the cutest café’s, venture to old town and sail on an abra to the gold and spice souks. There’s a great combination of historical and new along with some of the most iconic sights in the world – including the tallest building. So believe you me, you will have some amazing material for your followers to pour over.

 You get the best shot from this spot and you’ll see the Opera House too.

City Walk

 One of my favourite parts of Dubai. It has graffiti, colourful palm trees and a little London corner with a red phone box.

 One of the more unusual looking buildings.

The Walk JBR

Sunday musing… One day I’d love to go on an African Safari and visit the Giraffe Manor in Nairobi. What’s on your bucket list? #ootd #fblogger #travelmore

 Feels a bit like LA and again plenty of colourful graffiti which is nice to see amongst all the polished hotels.

 Borderline cheesy but it’s very VERY pretty.

 Up and coming with creative spaces and Insta-worthy decor. 

And if you are venturing outside of Dubai…
