Hello!
I am from the US, just arrived to work here in Qatar. Looking for like minded folks who are in a book club, or a book swap club for me to meet up with.
Also, would like to join a walking group if one exists... I work at HMC and looking forward to meeting new folks who are also living in Doha.Give me your email or phone and I will contact you...
Thanks
Amy

You can check qatarusedbooks.wordpress.com. They advertise your used books on the website, or you can simply donate it. They just opened a facebook page http://www.facebook.com/UsedBookStoreQatar in which I think there going to be a community of people interested in book swapping, opening a book club etc.
