I know this a forum about Dubai but...I have a friend I work with who is considering a position at a University in Doha. Does anyone know what the country & city are like? Is it similar to Dubai? How open is it? My friend is a woman. Married with a baby. Any info would be appreciated?
Cheers!

It is similar to Dubai, but on a much smaller scale and some people would find it a bit small and claustrophobic. Re: teaching, the salary packages there are beginning to compete very favourably with the UAE and a lot of teachers are moving there.
When you say 'open', what exactly do you mean? Qatar is fairly conservative, but not as restrictive as KSA.

Thanks for the response! By open, I guess what I mean is that she could walk around in regular normal clothes, drive, do all the things she would be able to do in Dubai.
