Laid Off Teacher Starts A Business Walking Across The Arabian Desert!

Amy Subaey always had an adventurous spirit but in 2020 she embarked on her biggest adventure yet.

Born and raised in the Minnesota, she has also lived in Bahrain and Egypt and moved to Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), in 2002.

But when she was suddenly made redundant from her position as an English instructor, she found herself unemployed in a foreign country with her teenage daughter, and no clue in which direction to take her career.

So she decided to FOLLOW HER PASSION!

An avid hiker and mountain climber, in 2011 she started a weekend hiking group.

A few years later she turned it into a business called UAE Trekkers, running weekend hikes while she continued teaching English during the week.

“I knew that I wanted to create something inclusive and that encouraged people to get outside and explore what Dubai had to offer outside of the city.

From there it spiralled,” Subaey says. (CNN)
