Newbie - Lancashire to Doha - Chat?
Hello,
My husband is more than likely going to accept a job offer in Doha. At this moment in time we are planning that I am staying in the UK to look after our 4 year old daughter whilst he goes out to work. The plan is save up money to try and pay off our mortgage as we are stuck in an apartment which we can not sell.
My daughter has just started school and has settled in really well and I am most pleased with the school. I am not ruling out moving out to Doha but would welcome advice on expats who are currently living there and perhaps experienced the same decisions as we having to make. Could you tell me your thoughts on the country, cost of living, dress code, stuff to do with kids, schooling, education, sport centres etc?
Thank you,
Kaz.
