Qatar Living - Life Changing

Good Morning QLers

So yesterday we  celebrated the 9th anniversary for QatarLiving.com at Al Balad Resturant, Mövenpick Hotel.

Well, I haven't actually been on this website for 9 years, but it has been almost 2 years since I first started using it. But I can say that joining QatarLiving was one of the best things I ever did  after coming to Qatar.

I came to Qatar in Feb 2013, and what I knew about Qatar was ZERO. I didn't even have friends here, and as you all know begninngs are always hard specially whne you are in a new place, with no one to support, so at this point Qatar Living helped me.

I joind Qatar Living the first time to find an accomidation, and in 2 days I found two good places and I moved in to one, and after this I found the Forums. And in there I could find the answer for almost every question I needed to ask from the amazing QLers.

Then I moved to a stage where Qatar Living became my second home, the people were nice, we used to have long discussion, arguments and laughed a lot. We used to talk about the weather, politics and even religion. There were the good, the bad and the ugly, but this is what life is about, "Diversity".

Qatar Living is were I found one of my best friends, who helped me in the begnnings. His QL name's MarcoNandos-01, this is where I met the best people ever - Kannan, Tinkerbell, Strom, Nad, GypsyGal, UkEng, Yasir, Deadman, Kharen, GreekGoddess, DaRuDe and Happygolucky.

Qatar Living also is the website that gave me the opportunity to win two pair of tickets, two times to watch new movies in Novo Cenima.

And last night, I won a Pair of Tickets to Turkey from Qatar Living, sponsored by Turkish Airways.

I didn't post this because I won something, I posted becasue Qatar Living helpled me start my life in Qatar. It is where I found, the place to live, the friends to share my good and bad times and the lovely gifts :)

Love and peace to all!

Let's bring back Qatarliving like what it used to be

My previous I'd was (the-longest-day) or something and the previous one which I don't remember .. I don't think that It will ever be the same again.. I don't see most of the old QL users who were interesting enough to spice up the discussion...

peesho-khan ,,, what was your previous ID ?

nothing remains the same, and every new thing needs time to be recognized, so let's work together to get back the old days, and even better :O)

Yes QL is indeed very useful for expats and especially for newbies... Although QL did kick me out a couple of times and i still don't know my fault.. Qatar living is not as it used to be...its what i feel maybe I am wrong...
