You should get skype for international line ... Qtel just too expensive for international call.

For what you describe about yourself ... i almost 80 percents sure you would love living in Al Khor.

You don't need to get additional line for internet ... just get ADSL. If you have no mortgage and house rented out ... you wont have any financial responsibility.

My suggestion ... i think you should give it a go to come here and see what happen :-)
