I won’t say that Qatar is amazing and brain-blowing (like the films of Night Shyamalan), but it’s better to prepare in advance for a trip to this country. The days off here are Friday and Saturday (and Sunday is already a working day); Alcohol cannot be imported into the country (and it is not so

… And on the 10th day of our trip to Qatar, the war in The Persian Gulf. We were sitting on the Doha Sands beach (a dozen meters from the Iranian embassy) when the first explosions thundered in the distance, and all the phones around suddenly started bursting with security alerts.
