@rsandlin. I agree with you 200%. Many expats in Qatar are nasty, this may have to do with their survival instincts. Also a country where 98% of the expats are in search for money, that behavior is not surprising. A large group of people here value money over humanity, many here even value money more than themselves, hence they end up depressed.

I have not been here for too long, however I have been told that certain nationalities are pretty nasty, Yes it goes beyond nations, it is more about the human nature...but yet there is a particular nation of people that seem to think that Money is what life is all about.

Qatar is an extremely beautiful city, I went to the Museum last yr and it was awesome. However I speak for myself here, for me it is not much about the environment, rather the sort of energy I am surrounded by. I come from Africa, and many people there don't have much, however 90% of them still express joy. I think the Qatar Government notices this defect, hence they try to encourage sports, social activities and many other beautiful things of life.

Personally I don't have a problem with the Culture of Qatar or the Religion here, because I believe with time, everything will eventually evolve, that's what life is about, life is about change.

I have learnt a lot in Qatar, and Qatar is great for Qataris. Also Qatar will be nothing without the expats...However I have decided to leave very soon this year, I love the culture, but in my mind the country is still evolving, and with change comes difficulty, flexibility and adaptability, which is all good.

In summary I think Qatar and it’s expats will do really well at the end of it all.

Oh yea, Sago13, I hope u find your ring.

Bless you all!
