What should I pack when moving to Qatar?
We asked people living in Qatar to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Qatar, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Bring lightweight, breathable clothing that will keep you cool in the hot, humid climate. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat are also essential for protecting yourself from the sun. Additionally, it is important to bring items that will help you adjust to the culture, such as modest clothing and a headscarf for women. It is also a good idea to bring a few items from home to make your new home feel more comfortable. Finally, make sure to bring any necessary documents, such as your passport and visa," remarked another expat who made the move to Qatar.
