There are no restrictions on the clothes you wear, just that women are advised to dress modestly.

During the month of Ramadan, some restrictions exist - restaurants and bars are shut, etc., but that is also the time when most expats leave Qatar on vacation.

It is way too hot then, so it's best you go home and enjoy Ferragosto on a nice beach :)

(I'm quite new to Qatar, and haven't yet seen summer or Ramadan here - this is only what I've heard.)

If you're a sports fan, you'll find many more things to do. There are clubs/associations and informal groups for most sports here. You could make friends off those, too.

Remember, social life isn't very easy here, so use every opportunity you get.

The key to enjoying your life in Doha is having a nice set of friends. However, it usually takes time. Find a place to start - your workplace, a sports club or even QL.

I've made some friends off QL, as have a lot of other people.

There are some nice restaurants, cafes and bars, but don't expect a roaring nightlife.

Oh, and driving is something you'll have to be careful about :)

The rest you'll figure out as you go along. Life is a little slow, and most things take a little time. Devi prendere le cose con filosofia ;) That apart, it's not a bad place.

I'm sure you'll be okay. Buona fortuna! :)

How would anyone know if he was eating pork ?

Perhaps it should jut be "Do not pork in public"

Sleeveless and other sexy dress are only allowed to Europeans, Americans and others from rich countries. But if you are asian, i guess one_shot is right, they will cut your head. In short, discrimination is being observed here.

Sleeveless is probably OK, if you don't have hairy armpits.

Shorts are OK, if they're not spandex..

Qatar is a beautiful little place in the corner of the Arabian Penninsula. Reminds me a little of the sand planet, Galambatus IV in the romulan quadrant - except the natives are friendlier and they don't have the sabre Tooth dolphins swimming offshore.

Apart from that, it is no different from Naples - except there are no bars on the streets and no scooters on the roads. No purse snatchers, but the overall driving is similar.

I am sure you will enjoy it..
