UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

I’ve visited UAE once proper, plus a couple layovers.  I wouldn’t mind going back – W definitely wants to – but maybe after all the other places where I haven’t yet been.

    1. Abu Dhabi (2015) (layover: MNL-AMM): Bi-regional Workshop to Build Legal Capacity and Advance Action on WHO Recommendations on Marketing of Food and Non-alcoholic Beverages to Children (WHO mission)
    2. Abu Dhabi (2018) (layover: MNL-AMM): Meeting of the Regional Parliamentary Working Group on Universal Health Coverage in the Eastern Mediterranean Region (WHO mission)
    3. Dubai + Abu Dhabi (2019): Fall Break Holiday (family trip)

“ARE” is the 3-letter abbreviation for UAE within the United Nations system.
