My god. I used to live in Dukhan in Qatar. When i was young, my dad was a doctor (A Medical Officer) for QGPC. we lived near the sports club beside the valley. This town is absolutely brilliant. I was about 8/9 when i lived there, and i'm 18 now. I would love to go back there to see my old house!
And I went to Dukhan English Speaking School, (i think thats what it was called back then). It's a pretty good school as far as i can remember. The teaching system is a bit different to the Irish System that i'm used to. I learnt alot about native americans for some reason. As a teacher, i think you'd like it. Its like heaven over there; palm trees everywhere, weather is amazing, sports centre is good. Although i do remember one thing about the sports centre: It used to be run by a scottish guy, but when i was there, it was a bought by an arab and he wouldn't allow under 13s into the club. That was a bit of a downer. but apart from that, its pretty good. The place is very relaxed and there are loads of people from different places, (Ireland, England, USA, India, Pakistan, Saudi, Qatar etc...).
That was 10 yrs ago so maybe its different now. But as far as i can remember its great. And the schools good too. :D
