About Sajit

Sajit moved to Qatar only a few months ago with big hopes. It is his first time trying to make it in a big city, but he is determined to prove that he has what it takes. Not speaking any English nor Arabic is currently his biggest barrier, but as a hard worker, he manages to get by and make a humble living. He is hoping to start a family and have a decent income, one day, here in Qatar.
