Who lives in a country like this?

waddlingpenguin's picture

Hi,

I am considering a post in Qatar and I thought I'd ask the community about themselves.

I would describe myself as sociable, creative and intelligent. I like martial arts and going to the gym. i like a little tipple, but not too much and obviously love travel and culture. I have lived all over the world and I am a single female.

What kind of people live here?

Freaks, only freaks, we are all freaks of nature :)
But seriously, normal people live here. Like everywhere else.
Nice ones, and rude ones, fat and skinny, black and white, all nationalities, all hobbies, all religions, all possible points of view.

QL does not reflect the social demographics of the country nor are their personalities indicative to those of the general populace. Only freaks come here like the 1st poster said...

Nah I'm playing there are really nice, normal people here.

Doha is a multicultural city and u'll find a diversity of nationalities, social backgrounds and religions. I'm sure u'll find people with ur hobbies and the nightlife is alright. However, I think there's a higher percentage of families vs. single people.

serdal said visas ...

One of the things you may not be aware of is that when you live here, you need an exit permit to get out. Even if you just fancy a weekend in Dubai, taking no leave whatsoever, your employer needs to give permission.
Also, if you have friends from SE Asia, those people will find it almost impossible to get visas to visit you here.

tobyson, in response to your humble inquiry, 'tipple' wud mean to get drunk (precisely there)

Thanks, it's nice to see that there are a few level headed people on here. I will consider my package.

For sure, one can find all sorts, all over, but there are ex pat cultures within a country (like Charisma men in Japan)This is why I ask. It's not meant to hurt anyone's delicate feelings, of raise anyone's blood pressure to the point where their head blows off.

So I am gratefull to everyone who is able to give a little insight from their point of view.

Cheers!

a tipple is a wee drink. Not a p**** up. Just a wee tipple. You would only be drunk on a tipple if you were a shandy light weight.

I don't have delicate feelings nor do I see the need for such replies, I am saying that the way you worded 'What kind of people live here?' seemed quite a bizarre question!Maybe you should have thought about how you worded it!

What kind of people live here? Hmmm, most people have large heads, 2 noses and 3 eyes...you know...the famous Wollygoggs....endangered species and all that....they like to hunt at night, mostly virgin damsels...they come in packs of 4, the amount that can be easily squeezed in their transporters...ah well, just come over and see!

A sense of humour is just common sense dancing, sadly, common sense has left the building and is dancing somewhere else.
