Squiz the World goes to… The United Arab Emirates

Each fortnight, we give the world globe a spin and see where we land. Then we take the kids of Australia on an audio excursion to visit that country and its people.
Join your captain, Christie Kijurina, on an audio adventure. Today, we’re flying to the United Arab Emirates, a country where desert traditions and futuristic ambition race side by side. From robot camel jockeys and towering skyscrapers to pearl-diving history, giant shopping malls and skiing with penguins in the desert, there’s so much to discover.
So, buckle up and get ready to explore the UAE.
