About

*Currently living in Cairo, Egypt, trying to stay out the way of maniacal taxi drivers and boisterous shaabab alike.

Who am I? Thats a very existential question, I fit into many different categories and yet cannot be defined by any of them. I am Muslim, I am American, I speak both English and Spanish (sometimes both at the same time if I’m really agitated), and I’m married to a very handsome Egyptian who puts up with my bs.  I have many opinions on a lot of things, most of them don’t mean much in the grand scheme of the world but sometimes I like to pretend they do. I try to find humor in my everyday because I think that life without laughter really isn’t worth it, and often it comes right down to laughing for the sake of my sanity. Many years ago I learned the reality of absurdity in the absurdity of reality and its stuck with me; the day I can’t tell the difference is the day I’ll hang my hat up and call it a night.
