Last Week in Doha

By MrsJacko

Hi Everyone
This is my last week in Doha, Next weekend I will be flying back to the UK on a one way ticket,
Although I wont be sad to leave it will seem strange not coming back to the place that has been home for the last 18 months,
Do you have any suggestions on things i should do in my last week to say farewell to this dusty, hot slightly bizzarre place,

my only suggestion is if you could rebook your ticket and leave today instead of next week do it. good luck

This one-way-ticket is a reality for each of us expats.....one day or the other it will come looking for us.....some might be prepared some might not be....

I will miss my friends and being able to fill my car with petrol for less than 10 uk pounds and my 8ft wide bed,

Its back home to my family 60 pound to fill the car and a 4ft6 double,

Bacon sandwiches, clean fresh air, green fields and lovely cool rain

Thanks to everyone for your input and advice over the last 18 months

TTFN (TA TA FOR NOW)

Keep Smiling :-) you never know who is looking

Go around Doha and take pictures of any sight that attracts you to show friends and loved ones. Visit also the Qatar Islamic Museum so you'll have a compilation of their rich culture and tradition for remembrance sake.
