So its Ramadam..the muslim holy month. Basically it means that Muslims can't eat, drink or smoke during the day light hours (applies to non muslims in public in qatar also) and the women have to cover up. Not with the Hijab which I am wearing..but the clothing yes. I decided to wear it (along with many others) because the men are getting worse with the harrassment (during ramadam especially) and this way they won't follow me when I am trying to buy groceries. Its not an everyday thing...just depends on how bad they are outside...wish I could elaborate more...
I went to the traditional souk with some friends and chilled out for the night. The evenings here are the busiest times and the shopping malls stay open until the early mornings hours. My friends tried to teach me arabic but really I am hopeless.....!!!
