I've been living in Qatar since childhood and its a really nice and peaceful place. You'll find it a good experience living here. As everyone said, clothing will be a problem for you as the dress code here is a tad different from the west. You can wear western clothes here but not the revealing types. Climate wont pose much of a problem becuse you'll eventually get accustomed to it, besides there are A.C.'s everywhere. You'll loads of shopping to do here, nice beaches, duning, jet-skiing and much much more. E-mail me ([email protected]) if you wanna buddy to show you around. You just got your first friend here.....
