I've lived in different parts like the Gulf and back home in Hargeisa and something I really miss is being around other Somalis. I go to uni abroad and there is not a single Somali here or even in my town that I know off. There are some Ethiopian girls and some Sudani guys, but it's not the same.
I tried chatting up this Oromo girl and it was such a tiring effort hard carrying that conversation. I miss the banter and fun back and forth, Somalis are never boring conversationalists imo. Oh man I am incredibly home sick.
It's making me reconsider making a life of myself here. The few Somali girls here are very into the local culture and just claim to be something else. I'm in Qatar and one girl for example always said she's Qatari and I found out a while ago she was just naturalized.
