How can I make friends as an expat in Dubai?

Making friends as an expat in Dubai can be challenging, but there are plenty of ways to connect with others. I suggest starting by joining local clubs or attending social events like meetups or networking events. Websites like Meetup.com or Facebook groups focused on expats can also be great resources to find activities that interest you. As someone who moved here two years ago, I found that volunteering is another excellent way to meet like-minded people and build lasting friendships.
