Qatar is a very peaceful country, and ladies are much protected, appreciated and respected then man,

But the population here is mainly man, approximate (1.3Million Man and 400 Thousand Women) you will have some mean thoughts or comments but it is limited and not necessary coming from locals, foreigners are also man, but what I am sure off is that each country has the same and more.

adults are ok but the adolescent kids may trouble you.

It is true that some people think that nurses are unskilled carers, but times are changing. If you act with integrity and professionalism you will get recognized for the skill and knowledge you have.

I have made a career form being a nurse in the middle east for 11 years. It takes time, experience and a lot of multicultural understanding to make it work.

There are many, nefarious factors that make it work,or not.

You really have to suck it and see. It worked for me.
