      Second day around the world, I mean Doha. Went nearby to Qanat quarters then up to Lusail and back down to the katara cultural village of which I think most of it are close at this time.

      It’s amazing how they’ve imported the world here. One moment I’m in Venice and the next France.

                #1 on that list is NOT TO bring any alcohol (duty free or otherwise) into Doha.

                Bought a Yamazaki 12 years, which are hard to come by these days when I left Singapore. Unfortunately I didn’t realise the laws of Doha until I was about to leave the UK. They have detectors for alcohol, being my guess, much worse than scanners where you put your bag through, that will call you out for it. Ended up having to give it up even though I was there for a very short time!

                On a positive note, Doha is about its artificial islands and mall culture. The malls here are designed very beautifully from an architectural perspective.

                Also if I had more time, I would go out to the sand dunes or out into proper desert.

                    @tody I will be in München with my family early December if you’re free around that time. Told @weftyarn about it. Flying into Zurich and splitting time between both cities me Looking at 6th to 9th/ 10th Dec for now. Might spend more time in Munich based on the advice from Emil.

                      @louisbosco Sorry to hear that as I can imagine it was a great bottle and interesting that they will not let a traveller carry one through and/or ship it to a destination versus confiscation.

                      How are the prices there? It looks like everything would be fairly expensive and maybe more than other areas that travellers would typically visit/layover in.

                      Another thing I noticed is that in many of your pictures, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of people. Is it busy there?

                        @goosehd they have much stricter laws regarding alcohol compared to Dubai or Abu Dhabi which both have duty free allowances for alcohol.

                        Based on the exchange rate, I thought it was cheaper compared to the other, but in terms of food and drinks, I would say it’s about the same as most European countries.

                        I think it does get busy, the places I’ve visited seem to allow it from carpark spaces I’ve seen, maybe I’ve just been visiting during off peak hours.

                        Hotels, I’ve had a bargain compared to Singapore. Staying at the St.Regis, it’s at least USD300 cheaper than Singapore with much better vibes.
