Hi Everyone,

I have just arrived in Doha this week and am working for a Oil and Gas company, I will be working on a rotation until January when my wife will join me for the move.I am going to be looking at some accommodation inthe next week or two and wondered where/what you suggested?
We have a budget of around 16,000 rh and would like to be in a family orientated area where we can make friends easily as we have a 3 month little boy coming with us.I have been shown Al fardan 5 which was lovely anybody there? but also the Pearl Area looks really nicea also.I am hoping to become a member of the golf Club so maybe that is best.Would love to know your thoughts any compounds full of expats with nice amenities please let me know.
Also what is the best Tv subscriptions to recieve Prem Football, Golf and Uk Soaps.

Thanks and look forward to meeting you guys soon.

Dave

hello

since u will be working in C ring rd u can try in hilal area, Matar Qadeem or Rawdah area as these places are mostly seetled with family in a reasonable budget and u will not get much traffic while travelling in the morning.

1st thing u have to know where is ur work , then decide . it is kindda hard to move at morning from ur home to work " Crowded " .

Example , If you are working in Dafna , don't stay in Wakra ;)

Good Luck
