Good luck to you and hope it all works out okay.

I was in a similar boat a few years back, albeit, working over in the US when I was 22.

As others have said, great experience and a good opportunity to save up funds for when the time comes to fly back to the UK. That's how I got my deposit saved up to buy my first place (and that wasn't a tax-free environment like the UAE!)
