Hobbies

  • Reading
    I challenge myself with a target to read 30-40 books/year and I have outdone myself last year. I like to read about almost everything.
  • Violin Learning
    I am learning to play the violin since I am passionate about it. I already started a course and am doing my own practice now.
  • Arabic Calligraphy
    I took an Arabic calligraphy workshop in Diwan Bookstore. The workshop was a three-week intensive course in which we learned the Diwani font and I am right now trying to do my own art with what I learned.
