Dubai - United Arab Emirates

Hey guys! My name is Claudia, a passionate content creator, video editor, freediver, and mountains & sea lover. I lived in Italy for most of my life and a couple of years ago I relocated to the United Arab Emirates, and I am now based in Dubai. Growing up surrounded by majestic mountains and stunning nature in Italy, I've developed an insatiable thirst for exploration. I started to explore the beauty of the Arabian peninsula since I relocated, and currently I am focused on the United Arab Emirates and Oman. As an expat, I have been exploring and documenting every corner of these countries, and I am still surprised to find new hidden gems and delighted to visit my favourite places again and again. I want to be helpful to make your Middle East experience as smooth as possible - and as well as Italy, my beautiful home country. My maps and guides have a lot of spots saved and organised, including hikes 🥾, lake 🚤, waterfalls 💦, wadi 🏞️, beaches 🏖️, coffee ☕️, lifestyle 🏙️ etc.
