Hey guys.

I'm a 14-year-old who will be moving to Qatar with my family - how is it living there?

Any advice for a teenager who has been through a very hectic past few months?

Welcome to Doha, Qatar, Brother! =) Just focus on school and your studies. Qatar has some of the best schools in the world, especially Qatar Foundation and Qatar University. From there, your life will grow and evolve. You'll learn more about the culture and people here. Enjoy! =)

I hear that you might be having a windfall of about US$ 15 million... That will help you pass the time at the malls

At least you got to meet O-Bummer and famous stars before coming here. Now focus on your studies.

Don't change your ways and bring your inventions to class, even if they look like clocks. Let's see how serious Qatar really is about supporting you, or if they only use you to polish up their image in the world.

I am pretty sure QF will give you and your family a lot of money, so your life should be easy compared to many other immigrants. Also, in the worst case scenario, you can take the plane to Dubai where it is more fun, and it is a cheap and a short trip.

Just bear in mind your inventions might not always be perceived positively here. so you might want to discuss with your teacher BEFORE you bring anything to the class, especially clocks :)

Welcome. You'll have great fun - especially since you're on a scholarship and everything will be paid for .

You can go to the desert or beach at the weekends . Swim in the clear blue sea, have a barbecue or go dune buggying.

There are lots of malls to chill in or ride around on your hover board in.

All in all , life will be fun
