Travel Diaries
Doha is similar to the big Gulf cities of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. For me it is the first of these cities that I get to know. For some they are a dream.
For me, Doha is a backdrop. What remains of the old buildings is now a museum. You hardly get to know the locals, but the guest workers are very friendly, despite the conditions under which they have to work.
