When I think of a city I think of lots of kitchy restaurants, nightlife, culture and fast and easy public transportation, parks to walk in, and what I call "block culture" where you live in an apartment and all of your needs are around your block, bars, retuarants, grocery stores, video stores,etc. So that you can walk to all these places.
Dubai and Bahrain are the only places here that I've found have that sort of culture to some degree.
It's defintely not here in Doha, where you can't walk anywhere and the city is ridiculously spread out with no public transport to speak of. Except for taxis who usually have no idea where they are going.
Also I don't find Qatari's to be the nicest Gulf Arabs at all. I've found them to be very conceited and arrogant. This of course, doesn't apply to all Qatari's, but the once who don't think they are "god's gift" to this world are few and far between.
