ReplyDeleteI also have fear of heights, but I was able to visit the observation deck at the 124th floor last year. Sometimes we just have to conquer our fears to enjoy what the world can offer. YOLO!
DeleteI am really amazed at all the structures in Dubai. Hopefully I can visit it one day. It's on my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteI hope that would come true! I'll be your tour guide for free! :)

ReplyDeleteOne thing I love about blogging is I learn a lot of things I didn't learn from school, either because I wasn't listening or I was absent. Haha.
