Hi i just got a job offer in Doha and will be moving in Jul 10. Would you guys be able to help me what things i should pick up from India which are either not available or very expensive in Doha.
I will be carrying a set top box for Direct to Home Television with subscription to Indian channels and lots of summer clothing.

I have a wife and 2 year daughter.

Anything else i should pick up like toys ?

Happy 2 of my colleagues are from Delhi but the more the merrier :)

I will be happiest to see someone from Chandigarh here but haven't met anyone from there yet.

MannuManish: wrt the set top box, the best quality signal in Doha is provided by Sun Direct and then followed by Tata Sky. Dish TV is not working in all places in Doha, so you need to be careful. Not sure about Airtel or Reliance Big.

Rest of the things you get here. Clothing may be cheaper in India depending on the brands you buy.

Nothing really, just come over. I brought only the set top box and a box full of common medicines when I came over apart from my clothes.

BTW which part of Delhi you from? I used to live in Vasant Kunj before coming here.
