Was in Bahrain, now in Qatar. Bigger UK community in Bahrain, though Qatar has a good-size one. As in Bahrain, common sense-dressing is the norm in Qatar. Qataris are a bit more conservative than Bahrainis but I prefer them this way specially the younger generation - they are more polite and helpful, less boisterous. Everything Bahrain's got, Qatar has as well including religious toleration. You would specially like the wider spaces Qatar has to offer!
