So I have been living in Qatar for a while .More than six years . The first 20 months we did not meet a single Hungarian .We felt we are alone .There was no embassy -nothing here to find out if there are other Hungarians living here .
Then we saw two women walking past as we were sitting on the bench .They were talking in Hungarian .It was unbelievable then ! Our eyes were gleaming with tears we ran after them . Since then I have been with my compatriots every now and then . They are coming from different part of the country ,different social background etc .
The Hungarian community is no more than 20 family strong .
Then the other day I got a call from someone who claimed that I used to teach her in Hungary 15 years before .She came to live here with her husband .It was difficult to remember then I simply could not believe . How can it be ! It is still unbelievable to me !

I feel that it is like a great blessing .I find the way to link myself back to our past .Living uprooted here -it is like I get back my roots !
