On Saturday morning I'm leaving for Qatar! I'm going to be working there for 3 weeks, until 13th of August. I didn't know I was going until yesterday, and a two days notice is kind of short when you're going away for three weeks... But it's fine, I don't mind going!
It's going to be hot down there this time of year, temperatures will be in the 110°F region, that is around 45°C. So I plan on spending most of my time indoors.
Anyway, I'll try to share some of my experiences and pictures from my trip on this blog once I get down there!
UPDATE!!!!
NOT GOING AFTERALL!
The kind of job I have is fairly unpredictable. Yesterday I received confirmation from our customer that they absolutely wanted me in Qatar for three weeks. So I booked tickets and started updating myself on our operations down there. Still I knew there was always a possibility of the whole thing being cancelled. Things can happen very fast in this industry. So I didn't bother to start packing, decided to delay it until the evening before I was about to go. That turned out to be a wise decission...
Today, at around noon we got a call back from our customer. Now they wanted to renegotiate the deal, and didn't feel comfortable with the rates we had agreed on. So the whole trip got cancelled, at least for now.
