I quit the UK for ‘luxury' life in Dubai but it left me at BREAKING point – reality is nothing like the Instagram pics
A WOMAN who ditched the UK for Dubai has returned home, after life in the city pushed her to breaking point. Natalie Goodall, now 32, made the decision to relocate to the UAE after she was offered a golf coaching job aged just 18. 6 6 She jumped at the chance - living with a friend then various family members before renting her own apartment in Damac Hills. Natalie lived in the seemingly idyllic and luxurious city for years until the Dubai lifestyle became too much - because the city's " business model" didn't allow for "work-life balance". After years of working 80 hour, six-day weeks, Natalie moved back to the UK in 2019 and has settled down in West Parley, Dorset. And, while she loved Dubai and says she'll go back for holidays, she said she's unlikely to relocate back there. As swathes of Brits opt to move out there with high expectations of luxurious living and endless fun, Natalie feels that Brits going with high expectations "may be disappointed." Natalie, now a self-employed PGA professional, said: "I never saw myself leaving Dubai - I was working at one of the best golf schools in the world. "And the city was absolutely stunning, on my day off I went down to the beach and when you let your hair down you could have a bloody good time. "But afterwards you'd look at your bank balance and think 'oh crap'. "But the business model out there - there is no work life balance. "I was coming home to my partner after 12 hour days, at 9pm, and I could barely hold a conversation because I'd be so tired. "In my last year I told him 'I can't do this' - you know when your time is up. "It's a very glamorous place and I can see moving there is a trend - but everywhere has their downfalls." At the time, she was making the equivalent of around £25-£30k a year - but the high costs in Dubai meant she couldn't enjoy the full extent of the luxurious lifestyle compared to what people assume. She said: "I was just making money to survive - in the service industry you were worked very hard. How easy is it to move abroad? Brexit means British citizens now have to apply for visas to move to countries within the EU. While some countries residency restrictions are easier than others, here's what you need to do at home before moving: Notify HMRC about your upcoming move. Let your local authority know and provide a forwarding address. Contact your mortgage and utility providers and bank before leaving. If you have paid enough UK national insurance contributions, you can qualify for a state pension abroad - contact the International Pension Centre. You can sign up to the Royal Mail's redirection service. If you have outstanding student loans, contact the Student Loans Centre. If you have children, give due notice to childcares and schools. "I was working six days a week and I couldn't afford to reduce my hours." After meeting her fellow expat partner Will Coan, 34, in 2017, while out there, the pair lived together but Natalie began to "spiral". She said: "You can feel yourself, your work and time management aren't as good, your diet goes out the window. " I never saw myself leaving Dubai but it's not sustainable - as I got older, I started to think, how the bloody hell will I have a life here? "It's not on an individual person - it's just the business model out there." In September 2019, she moved from Dubai back to the UK and got a job in Guernsey, once she had secured the necessary golf qualifications to be a coach. Nine months later, Will, who worked in a role in food manufacturing, finished his contract and moved back to the UK as well. They now own a home together in West Parley and are happier than ever. 6 6 6

'I'm a personal shopper - this is your wardrobe essential and why you should pay at least £100 for it'
If you've ever spent your morning commute daydreaming about starting afresh with your career, this feature is for you. Each Monday, we speak to someone from a different profession to discover what it's really like. This week we chat to personal shopper and founder of One Of A Style Stefania Bartolomei... Salaries can vary significantly... A freelance stylist starting out might earn £20,000-£25,000 a year, but with experience, a strong client base and the right network, that figure can grow to £100,000. I've started working with a financial adviser who is helping me plan for the future... including setting up a private pension and contributing monthly. Until now, I hadn't prioritised it - but as a business owner, I've come to understand how important it is to take full responsibility for my retirement. I might start my day with a wardrobe edit in a client's home... or else head to a boutique for a personal shopping session or receive clients at my office for styling consultations. Some days I work from home on admin, prep sessions or attend networking events. There's a lot happening behind the scenes - creating lookbooks, planning events and checking in with clients. The best perks are... early previews of new collections, invitations to exclusive events and collaborations with fashion and beauty brands. I've received beautiful items and samples through partnerships, which is always a lovely surprise, though not the reason I do what I do. I find pencil skirts and bodycon dresses difficult... They're rarely flattering for most body types and feel restrictive. As a stylist, I can't recommend them to the majority of my clients. When these styles dominate the shop floors, they limit the options available for my clients (and for me, too!). I'd love to see a return of tailored pieces with bold personality... like the power suits of the 1980s, reimagined with modern cuts, shoulder pads and vibrant colours. To find a style that suits you on a budget... start with the basics: understand your body shape and your colouring. When you know what suits you, you'll stop impulse buying and start shopping with purpose. Focus on versatile pieces you can style in multiple ways. Aim to build a capsule wardrobe instead of buying one-off pieces that barely get worn. Buying less but wearing more is key - strategic, intentional choices help you save money while staying stylish every day. A wardrobe essential is... a tailored blazer. It instantly elevates any outfit (and it's very on-trend right now). A great blazer can cost anywhere between £100 and £400, but if you wear it often, it's absolutely worth investing more in quality fabric and structure. I personally wear blazers almost daily, styled with jeans, tailored trousers, leather or dresses. They're no longer reserved for office wear - they've become true wardrobe staples. The most common mistake people make when buying clothes is... buying based on impulse or trends rather than what truly suits them and fits their lifestyle. One thing that makes a big difference is... learn your colours. Once you know which shades enhance your natural features, every shopping decision - from clothes to accessories to make-up - becomes easier and more cohesive. I have styled high-profile professionals, influencers and journalists... Discretion is key, so I never name names - but at the end of the day, every client wants the same thing: to feel confident and like the best version of themselves. Personal styling originally served celebrities but... I want to help busy mums, professional women and anyone who wants to feel more confident and put-together while saving time. Whether it is £40 or £400... if you invest in a piece that's versatile, confidence-boosting and used often, it's worth every penny. I always say: the true value of an item is how often you wear it. I usually work around 36 to 40 hours a week... though this can increase during busy seasons like spring and autumn. Sometimes I work weekends too, but as a mum, I try to reserve weekends and holidays for family unless a weekend job is absolutely necessary. I trained with a styling academy in London... completing an intensive one-week course in image consulting. After that, I continued my education with additional online certifications in personal styling to build confidence and reinforce my knowledge. That said, the most valuable training has come from working with real clients. The biggest threat to my industry right now is... fast fashion and AI-generated style tools. Both can make people believe that style is quick, cheap and universal, when it's actually deeply personal and intentional. Partnerships with brands or personal shopping arrangements... should never be the focus - the client and their needs always come first. I only take clients to brands or stores that offer a commission if, and only if, I believe they genuinely align with the client's style, budget and needs. I don't have a fixed retirement age... Styling is both my passion and profession, so I'd love to remain involved in some capacity. My long-term vision is to evolve my business into a style academy, where I can mentor the next generation of stylists and share what I've learned.
