It’s currently 3AM right now and I’m at the airport waiting to board a flight to Abu Dhabi. A couple of weeks back I got an email from the Abu Dhabi Tourism & Culture Authority inviting me to visit Abu Dhabi for their Formula 1 weekend and enjoy all the activities they had lined up. They sent me my weekends schedule and it includes kayaking in the mangroves, sand surfing, tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the Jay Z concert, the Muse concert, Ferrari World, Waterworld and best of all, I get to watch the Formula 1 Grand Prix this weekend from the paddock club suite followed by the Depeche Mode concert! I’ve never been to Abu Dhabi so this is probably the best way to experience it. I’ll be posting pictures on my Instagram to add me if you aren’t already following me @mark248am

Officially your a jerk, but also a major player………SWEET!!!!!!!!
And to think I had to save my hard earned cash for a year just to get a grandstand seat…..
Padlock or Paddock? 😉 have fun
Paddock will fix it now
You get to see Depeche Mode AND Muse?!…FOR FREE?!, You sir, are one lucky duck and I’m very impressed ;D
This is not fair, you only got this cause the Lebanese mafia controls the UAE, and the gulf:(
Have fun
implying mark is a mafioso…
actually i think it’s called a joke
Is this for Real? Mangroves in AD; you got to be kidding me.
I met depeche mode last September when I was in Washimgton.. They stayed at same hotel, the four seasons.
you are one lucky *fill in the blanks*!!!
Mark, you have me somewhat confused: how come a guy with a penchant for creativity and the good Life manage to hold out as long as you have in Q8?
No thoughts on moving base to the Emirates or even Qatar, for that matter??
I get asked that question a lot and my response is always that this is my home. I grew up here and my life is here along with all my friends so even though I’m not Kuwaiti I still consider this my country.
Hahahahah qatar
Also I like the implication that everyone willingly living in Kuwait must be some sort of uncreative retard who can’t possibly figure out other countries exist
your going to DM without me :/
wtf there was a Muse concert? I wish there was a place to easily see these
@LDV:
A lot of us choose to live and work hard in Kuwait so that we are able to then play even harder in Macau or Monaco afterward, and no we are not even thinking the Emirates or Beirut). AD, DBX are small fry in the larger scheme of things.
Bye the bye, Oman and not the Emirates has a better quality of life and living to offer. I find the Emirates way too synthetic and full of artifice for my taste. It is cool for a weekend break but anything longer can positively get in your hair.
