Hey,

Yep first time in Qatar - and a few years now since I was in the middle east. I loved it in Jeddah and Doha looks great..so I am really looking forward to spending time there and seeing my friend.

I was just last minute nerves about arriving there and standing out like a sore thumb as a young english girl - didn't want to get into trouble with the visa application! But it all sounds okay feel much calmer now..thanks for the advice!
