Almost every Friday, while I was living in Dubai, if I wasn’t travelling to a different part of UAE, I would walk from my apartment in Al Barsha and make my way to Bur Dubai or Deira. Walking is not something many people do in Dubai mainly due to the heat, but for me it was the best way of discovery the real Dubai.
Once one occasion I came across a butcher in Bur Dubai, who was more curious as to why I would want to take a photo inside a butchers.
The Afghani baker however was very happy for me to take his and his colleagues photos and invited me into the small bakery. They were very humble but generous giving me fresh bread to taste.
