I'm afraid I can't be of much help as I don't arrive in the country until Friday 2nd March at night. Canuk-I belive it was-suggested that they put staff in a shared villa or apartment. I have asked the HR and they say it is fully furnished. However I have no idea who I am sharing with or where it is. I'm actually looking forward to getting off the plane and finding all this out-it makes the whole move more exciting!! I also don't know anything about transport-I'm hoping I will be living within 1/2 hours walking distance as I don't drive and will not be able to afford taxis! As for buses-from this site I have found that there is a bus service in Doha but it is not supposed to be any good. I think that is something I'll need to find out for myself though!
As soon as I arrive and get to check out the hospital and accomodation, I'll reply on this post to let you know about it all. However I don't have a computer so you'll have to be patient with me as I find an internet cafe!! By which time you may well have arrived yourself!!
You could search for Canuk (who works there) on this site.You might find quicker and more useful information that way.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.
