Hi everyone, I’m a Yemenite Jew and I’ve always lived in Europe, but ever since moving out of my family home, I’ve been feeling a stronger sense of disconnection from my culture. Most of the Jewish communities around me are Ashkenazi or Sephardic (and i have much love for my ashkenazi and Sephardic people) and while I was raised strictly Teimani, it’s been hard to find people who share that background.
I really love my heritage, our food, our music, our traditions, but not having a Teimani community around me has been tough. Now that I’m living on my own, I feel that distance even more.
Are there any other Teimanim here? Or other Mizrahi Jews who feel something similar? Would love to connect and hear your experiences.
