Hi guys, I'm considering taking a job in Qatar and wondering how life would be on say 30k Qr based in Doha?
housing provided by the company, I would need to pay for beer and transport is taking a taxi a good option or should in consider a cheap car?
Is it a bit more social than say in 2010.

Thank you in advance

some info is missing here,
are u traveling alone or with family , do u have schooling or not
buying a car is better option since fuel is cheap and 30k-50k can get you a nice car, unless you want a brand new

Captain Greg

Thank you for your reply, I will be alone

don't hesitate,
unless  your offer is close to what you get in your country
of course you are coming to reputable company !

Hi sorry to bother again
Can you advise if I do not purchase a car is it possible to move around with taxi?
At this stage I don't know where I will be staying but I will definitely want to socialize in the evening from time to time and am unsure about the transport system especially later in the evening

taxi's are available and cheap  relatively to other countries
