Nobody warned me about this in Dubai...
I moved to Dubai recently and there is one thing absolutely nobody warned me about...
The hot water 😭
I expected the air outside to feel like opening an oven, but I genuinely thought I could at least take a cold shower to recover. Nope.
I turned on the cold tap today and it felt like it had been connected directly to a kettle. The water coming out was HOT. Not warm. HOT.
I'm exhausted from the heat all day, and when I finally get home, I can't even cool down with a shower because the pipes have basically become giant solar heaters.
How do people survive this every summer? Is there some secret Dubai life hack that every resident knows but forgets to tell newcomers?
Do you just shower at 3 a.m., let the water run forever, install a cooling system, or simply accept your fate?
Seriously, I'm melting. Any advice would be appreciated.
