Meet Uschi

Uschi first came to the Emirates in 1988. She arrived from southwestern Germany as a visitor and found herself drawn to the desert, the camels, and the generosity of the people around her.

It started with Sarab.

When an Emirati camel breeder gave her a young female camel called Sarab, a fascination became a daily life. The farm grew from that relationship, and from the local friends who taught Uschi the rhythms of the desert and the traditions of its food.

Dubai became home.

More than two decades later, Uschi shares the farm because she wants guests to feel the welcome she received: tea, stories, food, animals, and time to slow down.

Camels are enormous animals, but they have hearts like little babies.
