dragons' taxi


Most of the taxi drivers that I’ve come across in Dubai are from Pakistan, with a large proportion coming from the North West frontier province. I always make an effort to engage with the driver, it helps to pass the journey and also is a factor in if they deserve a tip or not.

I feel like one of the dragons from dragons den, stroking my beard whilst listening to the drivers perspective on the weather, politics, or sports. Thinking if they deserve a tip, or is it the case that “I’m out” and they only get the exact fare.
