qatar is nowadays more ethnically diverse than it used to be ok it is not to the extent that dubai is but not so far behind.
never make the mistake of trying to chat up a muslim sister cos firstly if they are a good muslimah then you get into big trouble, if they are a so called muslimah then she will reject you cos A) they only stick to their own kind i.e. pure arabs and B) you dont know the trick and way that they are chatted up which is not by chatting at all but following them around for ages then dropping your card into their shopping bag very discreetly so that no one sees you dont want her to get a bad name, and making sure that only she sees it. LOL Wallah when i see this it cracks me up!!!!!!
Astaghfirullah its like these people forget that Allah swt sees all Subhan'Allah! they are more concerned with people and what they think than our creator the Almighty Lord and His wrath.
Alcohol is not really available there in the open except for hotels oh and duty free in doha airport. so your ok there since your not eve a big drinker... oh sorry but that means that you do drink!!!

it is extremely hot!!! especially the humidity just kills you its like being in a steam room, so if you have any sinus problems with ACs then i suggest you do something about it and get the proper treatment and remedies for it.
