Post new topic

Hi everybody, I am a 37 year old male from Singapore and just been in Doha for like... 3 months... not new but not old too.

Am just wondering what do people in Doha do for X'mas celebration. I understand there's probably no X'mas lighting putted up in public places and all due to the fact that it's a muslim country. But really, what can one do here to while the lonely X'mas away.

Is there like any special events we can go to or celebration?

Good point Ray but it's not quite possible cos I will be going back end Jan to Singapore to celebrate one of our local festival thus spending X'mas here. Guess I just have to stock up at QDC and pop some champagne at home.

Would like to go hang out at some clubs but my guess is that it's going to be real packed and not mentioning you might just need a female partner to enter certain clubs and unfortunately most of my female friends here don't club so ya....
