Anniversary

This week is my 1st Anniversary in Qatar and it has been quite good, suprisingly. Apart from being able to pop down the pub with the my mates for a pint and missing an ingredient from my breakfast, i dont really miss much from home.

Question is, its only been a year so i guess its been more like an extended holiday - does it get harder as time goes by?
