alexie...If you were Indian you would have a lot of malayali "cafeterias" dotted all around doha where breakfast=QR5, Lunch =QR5 & Dinner =QR5. But these would be filled with bachelors all the time and not advisable for girls.

So you would have to settle for Fast food like, KFC, Burgerking, Hardees etc where an average would be QR 20 per meal! So QR60 per day and QR 1800 in 30days.

You would have to cook at home to save....

Rest all is relatively cheap. Even getting a car....you can get one Suzuki Alto at QR500/month for 5yrs!

alexie ...Whatever you say dont agree for "Housing Allowance" ask for "housing" ie the company should provide you with a house or a room or atleast a bunk-bed. The Housing scene here is pretty bad.

I guess Qr 3000+Travelling Allowance+HOUSING.

QAR 4000 + medical + accommodation/allowance + transport/allowance + air fare ticket for every yearly completion of contract. and depends on how many years of experience, it can be more.
