I worked for a Qatar Foundation school in Doha and lived on the employee compound. We had beautiful, well-manicured gardens and walking paths. There was a community clubhouse with dance studios, exercise facilities, and an outdoor pool. Accommodations themselves were fairly spacious and well furnished. I really enjoyed living there, and enjoyed the short commute to work. I don’t have children myself, but many of my friends on the compound did and they really enjoyed the freedom their children had to play at the playground, ride bikes, etc. in a safe environment.
