Qatar – Day 8
Well, the World Cup is over. What does that mean? It means it’s time for us to move on as well. It was a lot of fun while it lasted, and there were some great moments (and some bad as you read) but overall a fun time. But! That obviously doesn’t mean we’re done here. We…

Qatar – Day 7
Our last full day in Qatar. Crazy to think. It seems like it all happened so quickly! But, it doesn’t matter. We have to focus. We HAVE to get into somewhere to watch the final. Our plan is FIFA FanFest. Knowing that we have failed to get into the official one in Brasil (although we…

Qatar – Day 2
So we woke up in our Caravan Village, and are ready to get our day going! Today is game day! We were originally going to stay another night in Kuwait and arrive this morning, but the threat of missing the game today if anything went wrong was just too big, so here we are! Depending…

Qatar – Night 1
So, as you know we made it safe and sound to Doha. First impressions? This city/country has gone wild for the World Cup! Every single place you look, there is World Cup branding. It seems we have landed in the right place! Super excited! First thing is first. We arrive at the airport, and we…
