Since I have moved to Qatar I've had to make conscience choices about my appearance, especially the way that I dress. I always get asked if I have to wear a hijab (headscarf), but in Qatar it is not mandatory, so I don’t. To be a prestigious person in Qatar, I do not wear tank tops, shorts, or any skirts above my knees. Back in the US, I wore some really low cut clothes and now that I look back on it I feel a little ashamed. I started out dressing more conservative to respect the culture and Muslim influence in this country, but what has emerged is respect for my body, therefore more respect for my inner self.
