ABOUT GRAPESHISHA


Grapeshisha is an online resource focused on providing information and insight on Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the United Arab Emirates as a whole. Whether you are interested in moving here or reside here already, Grapeshisha will give you vital nuggets of information to create or cement your understanding of this ever changing and expanding country. We are also increasingly looking to assist tourists to make their visit to the country a rich experience. Grapeshisha is content driven to give you a first hand view of the things that you need to know about.

We realise that it is often difficult to find information that you can trust and so, in order to become a central point of information on the UAE, we have covered a number of subject driven topics covering anything from getting a job, to culture, to the best hotels and have also linked to the main web sites in the region which all have their niche specialty. In some instances we have gathered first hand and second hand data that you may not be able to obtain easily.

For expatriates and locals, businesses and individuals, Grapeshisha is the resource you don't want to be without.

The UAE Newsletter that you need to have
Grapeshisha is one of the UAE's fastest-growing email newsletters covering social, business and cultural issues. Each edition aims to educate and entertain on a topical issue in both a factual and interesting way. The Grapeshisha Newsletter is free and is sent by email, every couple of months.

A very brief history
From just 30 lucky souls in the pre-Grapeshisha days (September 2003), Grapeshisha now has over 5,000 readers (December 2005). And the majority of those have joined us thanks to word-of-mouth, either interested in seeing what the UAE is all about, searching to find a new home in this vibrant country, or to gain current local understanding. Readers span all continents, with the majority residing within the UAE, UK, Canada and the rest of the Gulf Countries. If you want us to tackle a certain topic, let us know. Indeed, if you want to write for Grapeshisha, we would be happy to entertain the idea of publishing interesting pieces as an edition, or within our another view section .

You can sign up to receive Grapeshisha free by entering your email in the box in the top-right hand corner of this site - and you can unsubscribe at any time. The newsletter still continues, but we now highlight topical issues on the Grapeshisha Blog, as well as providing some detailed topic coverage on the website.

Press
We have been mentioned a number of times in the press and have had a few of our blogs highlighted in the local press. Grapeshisha was also profiled on Gridskipper and Time Out Magazine. If you mention the site, please do let us know .
