CheffandVet · Cihan & Eren

Two brothers, a plane ticket and Dubai

We're Cihan and Eren. We started making content in 2019, then moved to Dubai. As we showed Dubai as it really is, our inbox filled up: 'I want to come too — where do I start?' CAV Academy was born from that question.

The day we moved to Dubai

Our first day started with suitcases, no contacts and no Emirates ID. We learned everything by trial and error: where to get a SIM, how to top up a Nol card, which neighbourhood fits a budget.

Moving abroad in your twenties — we moved to Dubai

The channel grew, questions multiplied

Instead of typing the same answers, we opened a camera. School prices, cost of living, apartment tours, car prices… Then we realised: what people really need isn't enrolment — it's the first 30 days after landing.

That's how CAV Academy was born

Free consulting, direct USD payment to the school, airport pickup and a face-to-face orientation day. Today we're a team living in Dubai — riding the same metro as our students.

Our two years in Dubai
The one thing we never sell: an experience we haven't lived.
