Just Me in Hungary

Yesterday, after I was kicked out of the Library for violating the one-hour policy, I became cognizant that I am alone. Quite alone.

I sound a bit like a sixth-grader, but no one talked to me at lunch today. Not one voice wished me a Happy Thanksgiving all day long. I debated becoming sad, but decided to fall asleep instead.

I am thankful that living in the town of Heves, living in the middle of Hungary, living as a foreigner, living as a teacher of English as a foreign language is not my permanent reality...
