'no soul or character and if you are used to cosmopolitan, vibrant and diverse societies, you'll feel an extreme void here.'

Well Qatar has a very diverse and cosmopolitan society!!!I come from one, my parents live in one and I have travelled to many places. I love Qatar.

I have a Qatari friend who thinks Canada is the dullest place he has ever visited namely because of the people...
As Olive said.... how long can you look at scenery. so I guess that balances it out.
