xplode,.... ...think of your good future and be wary of who to be with. You are coming here to work more, earn more and enjoy normal life. Check your priorities. You are young, do not waste your youthfulness to nothing. There is always time fot leisure and pleasure. Settle first and keep logging-in to QL for more advices.

Welcome ...Bago rin ako dito sa Doha, pero OK naman.
maninibago ka ng konti, at may adjustment.
sa ngayon, mainit dito, kaya consider the type of clothing.
Let me know if you need friends, I want to be one.
Private message ka lang sa akin.
Ingat.

in addition to the above ...what and what not to bring, make sure your luggage is only 20kls for check-in and 7 kls handcarry. if your ticket will be Qatar Airways, register for the Privilege Club now so you will be allowed to at least an addition of 5 kls in checkin, though not a guarantee... dont bring your fave canned foods and noodles, shampoos, soaps etc as they are all available here in the filipino stores... that said... good luck and have a nice trip... im sure you'll enjoy it here...

website is ...http://www.qmiles.com
register now then when you arrive in doha, fax them your priv club number with your boarding pass/copy of ticket to credit the points to you.
just to be sure, bring an extra bag for hand carry in case your check in luggage exceed 20kls and will not honor your priv club membership as you are a new member. it will come handy to transfer the excess kls in it. (remember this whether or not your flight will be QA or other airline)
best of luck and everyone is looking forward here to see you soon... :)

Welcome to Doha ...Hi kekai,
It seems ur first time to work abroad. You can freely bring bible and rosary beads, but keep inside ur luggage for safety reason, and dont hand carry them. Likewise, dont carry also liquid items, perfumes anything pressurized, bawal sa plane un. I have lots of frens here in Al ahli hospital, un accomodation nyo right behind the building lang, few steps away. So try to contact me na lang at 5449824. Goodluck and Hapi trip
