I love taking photo when travelling because as time passes, you need things to jog your memory and nothing works better than photos that you took yourself or with you in the photo. It is definitely so much easier to share with your friend than you describing the places to them
Here are some stunning photo taken by a group of influencers from Singapore and Malaysia that were invited by Dubai Tourism Board for their Dubai trip. (Do click into their profile to find out more about their experience.)
