What happens when a journey on the padel court leads to new horizons? Join me as we celebrate the remarkable story of Pol Viera, who transitioned from coaching in Stratford to becoming an integral part of Padel Art in Dubai. Pol shares his initial fears and excitement about moving to the Middle East, detailing the unexpected opportunity that led him to this vibrant city. From his first impressions of Dubai’s breathtaking skyline to the warmth of its people, Pol’s reflections paint a vivid picture of cultural contrasts and personal growth. We reminisce about his invaluable contributions over the past two years and the sense of community that made Padel Art feel like home.

Our conversation takes a turn towards transformation and new beginnings as Pol embarks on a career in real estate. We discuss the initial challenges faced while establishing Paddle Art and the essential human touch that kept the club thriving. The narrative unfolds with heartfelt anecdotes about the supportive relationships and events that fostered a unique sense of belonging. We explore the courage it takes to embrace new opportunities, as Pol seeks fresh challenges without economic limits, and express gratitude for the friendships built along the way.

Amidst all the change, the bond with Padel Art remains strong, reflecting on shared passions and future aspirations. Together with my co-host, we delve into personal stories of rediscovering a love for padel, highlighting the importance of childhood interests in shaping our professional paths. As we toast to Pol's new adventure, there's a hopeful anticipation for the future—dreaming of selling villas, reconnecting over the game, and perhaps even a new car on the horizon. This is a celebration of friendship, growth, and the journeys that make life so enriching.
