A tourist down on luck and with no access to cash had resorted to living in a tent on the Dubai-Al Ain motorway, according to local reports.

The woman, who was suffering from physiological issues, was found alone by police in the area.

The 35-year-old is from an Eastern European country, she left her home country after falling out with her own family and told Tourism Police that she loved the city and that she said she would rather stay in a tent than leaving Dubai.

Police took her to a hotel however she was later moved to hospital to support her physiological needs.
