I’m an urban planner from Vancouver, Canada, and I moved to Doha earlier this year. After working on city development projects back home, I was looking for a place where urban growth was happening rapidly — and Doha stood out immediately.
I found my apartment through
https://middle-east.realestate/ and ended up buying a modern unit in Lusail, which is actually one of the most exciting urban development areas in the region right now. The platform made it really easy to search by neighborhood and compare properties.
Since moving, I’ve joined a team working on smart infrastructure planning. The scale and ambition of the projects here are incredible — it’s a great place to apply everything I’ve learned, while also learning new approaches in a fast-developing context.
