Answers from Raza

If you could choose, what city would you most like to live/work in? Why?

Dubai... its a lovely place... it can not be understood with conventional thinking and can not be compared to any other place... there are more beautiful places, there are more inexpensive places to live, but there is nothing like Dubai. Lived there for decade and just know this.
