Hey Canadians!

I am new to Doha in May 07 and after a few months of crazy workload I am finally getting a chance to check for other Canadians out there.

My profile gives the scoop on me so if you see anything of interest please get in touch.

Also interested in hearing of any groups for Canadian in Qatar if you can take a minute to pass this info on.

Thanks and hope you are enjoying the place

If you are on line, come say hello to a new canuck on board here! :o)

Hi Just You! Get typing and rack up those points to get your acceptance to the Social Group activities. Look forward to meeting you in due course.

After the summer Hiatus, the Canadians in Qatar group whould be resuming their functions and get togethers. It's a great way to meet fellow canucks out here. You guys should come, even if alone...the whole point is to meet people.

Best of luck in Doha, and hope to see you guys around.

Stay safe.

Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?

Everyone's kinda gone for the summer - but there is an email listing that you send your email to, and then they respond back.

I got here a few months ago, and haven't even tried meeting any new Canadians yet :)

BUT, I hear that they do some cool stuff, they had the Canadian Ball a couple of months ago, they play hockey at one of the mall's iceskating arenas, and a lot of them do socialize and keep themselves busy.

Let me find that email... ah- here it is:

canadiansinqatar[AT]fastmail.fm

And there are a few other canadians on this board - try a search.

I'm sure they're a lovely bunch - I've just not been brave enough to show up alone!

It is pretty quiet here, and it takes some time to get settled in. Everyone makes themselves VERY busy with work :) You should pick up a copy of a magazine/book called Marhaba - has lots of useful information.

...so good luck!
