You can’t be sensible all the time

... have a luxury vehicle or two parked at home but for everyday use, nothing seems to be the Land Cruiser. There are also plenty of Porsche Cayennes and there may be more in the future as the State of Qatar is in talks with Porsche/Volkswagen to purchase something like 25% of Porsche.

I looked at Civics, Accords, Mazda 3 and 6, Corollas, and a few (used) beamers. I also priced out, but didn’t test drive some Nissans (Versa or Tiida here ...

Fingerprints Take 2 & 3 and the HHH Running Club

... social/recreational running group which was fine by me. Alex, the leader of the group gave Annette a very nice HHH Doha t-shirt that I wish I took a picture of because after the first wash the cheap silk screening came right off.

This goup was mainly Brits but some from other areas of the world. First outing we ran around the Aspire park/track and followed up with food in the Villagio Mall.

Doha, where the Sheiks are Chic

... the kids, dressed like any Western child would be dressed, riding in the shopping carts filled with food and other accessories like shampoo, children's sneakers, t-shirts, and a new toaster. I looked on in amazement as a father and mother (who did not show any of her face) walked around with a little girl in jeans and a black t-shirt. When would she decide, or be asked, or however it may happen, to lose her t-shirt and jeans and don herself from head ...

A day in the Middle East

... Coast of Saudi Arabia, in the Persian Gulf. It's an Islamic Country so I've packed prepared with a hijab and lightweight full coverage clothes. The weather here is desert, in the 80's and low humidity. We're excited to see the sun come up and explore the city. Our hotel is nice, simple and clean. They let us book a day rate since we are only here from 0400 to 2200. It's a Swiss hotel with a very diverse staff. We were the only people in the ...

Zwischenstop in Doha

... Blick auf meine Gepäckmarke beruhigte mich aber. Dann ging's raus nach Doha. Die im Flughafen genannten Preise für eine Fahrt ins Stadtzentrum unterschieden sich dramatisch von den draußen, von Taxifahrern, genannten Preisen. Egal, ich wollte ein wenig Doha sehen. Mein Taxifahrer, Radj, war Nepalese - mit Familie, die weiterhin in Nepal lebt. Wir hatten ein wenig Verständigungsprobleme, da sein Englisch eher aufgeschnappt war - aber wir kamen leidlich klar. In ...

Transit.

... I was thinking this was going to be a two or three hour flight but it turned out to be nearly six hours, which actually suited me just fine as that was long enough to get in a good breakfast and a nap - without having to worry about oversleeping and missing anything. During the flight, I smiled a few times at a curvacious Muslim woman who was pretty much covered from head to toe. To my surprise, when she passed by my seat to go to the toilet, she slipped a napkin into ...

9 Hours in Qatar

... make up only 40% of population, foreigners comprise 60%!! - $1US will buy you 5 liters of gas, but only 3 liters of water! (tons of oil and gas here in Qatar). - There seems to be a competition between Qatar and Dubai. After Dubai built their Palm Island, Qatar decided to build "The Pearl" island... basically the same thing, different shape: A massive land-fill formed luxury island. Dubai is building the tallest building ...

Welcome to Doha

I spent a few day in Doha! I have to say that i did enjoy my time there! Doha is a city still under construction but if you walk in the old Doha you can discover plenty of intersting stuff.The people are very nice and really welcoming. One thing that i will remember for sure about this city is the heat! At 21h00 the temperature is still as high as 38 degrees. I must have took about 4 showers a day during my stay, it was incredible.

Passport? Check. Stamp in Passport? Shit......

... airport to the front gate at Al Udeid Air Base, I then have to call Vehicle Dispatch to catch a ride to the Passenger (PAX) terminal on base. Once there, I check for flights to Kandahar, sign up for said flights, and grab a bunk for the next day or two (it's not an easy task to find a flight!). So that's how it usually goes...but I don't do things the usual way. :) Some of us here met some Marine pilots that fly a six-seater plane in and ...
