Γειά σας, καλή χρονιά και χρόνια πολλά σε όλους!

Είμαι απο Κρήτη και πριν 2-3 μήνες κέρδισα ένα βραβείο στο φωτογραφικό διαγωνισμό που σπονσοράρει ο Σείχης Αλ-θανί,

"The Al-Thani Award for Photography 2008" και με έχουν καλέσει να μείνω 5 μέρες στο Sheraton hotel, για τη βράβευση. Θα ήθελα να ρωτήσω πόσα χρήματα θεωρείτε οτι πρέπει να κρατάω για αυτές τις μέρες και αν υπάρχουν (φαντάζομαι σίγουρα θα έχει - αυτή τη περίοδο ψάχνω και στο internet) μέρη με φωτογραφικό ενδιαφέρον αλλά και τοποθεσίες που θα έπρεπε να επισκεφτεί κανείς όπωσδήποτε. Ευχαριστώ εκ των προτέρων για την όποια βοήθεια.

Επίσης αν υπάρχει κάτι που θα έπρεπε να ξέρω για το Qatar παρακαλώ ενημερώστε με. Π.χ. πρόσφατα διάβασα οτι η συμπεριφορά των οδηγών είναι περίεργη. :)
