I have done the same thing one year ago and have been tormented about it by my family and friends. My own reason for dropping down the offer was the weather of course, and my desire not to let my family and especially my little girl to grow up in such a consumption society with no limits at all. I am happy and relaxed in Amman and was very relieved to see that there are other people who would reinforce my decision to prefere Amman to Dubai. Dear Isam;
