I was miserable working 50-hours a week at my NHS job but I traded it in for glam new life in Dubai, anyone can do it
A WOMAN who was working 50 hours a week at her NHS job traded it all in for a glamorous new life in Dubai.
Dominika Blonska, 27, studied to become a nurse, gaining a master’s degree in Nurse Prescribing before diving into her career.
She used to work 40 to 50 hours a week, making pennies, but has since completely changed her life and has no regrets.
Dominika, who was born in Poland before her family moved to Wakefield, West Yorkshire, now runs her own coaching business and works as a model.
The fitness influencer, who has 30.4k Instagram followers, explained that despite having a “stable job” in the UK, “deep down” she knew it wasn’t for her.
“So, during Covid, I made a bold decision. I quit my job, sold my belongings, packed my savings, and moved to Dubai because it was one of the few places still open at the time,” she told FEMAIL.
“I had no concrete plan, just a strong belief that I would figure it out along the way.”
Dominika, who has dated Love Island star Anton Danyluk, explained that the perks of moving to Dubai include a warm climate, female safety, tax-free income, and having luxury shopping and dining experiences on your doorstep.
She explained that everywhere you walk in Dubai you are surrounded by “positive, successful people which gives you the drive to keep doing well.”
Dominika also explained that there are “so many opportunities in Dubai,” and it is easier to make new friends.
We previously revealed how one UK family decided to swap the rainy UK for Dubai, and showed off their impressive villa, which included four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and access to a private gym and pool.
TikTok user Sarah, who is known as @sarahs_dubai_diary, explained that her family made the move five weeks after landing in Dubai.
She explained that the family have had no regrets since making the move, as it has been the “best decision.”
The mum explained that they were able to afford a more high-end space after moving further away from the city centre.
The villa, which Sarah said “really suited our family,” also had a maid’s quarters.
