EGYPTIAN FROM CAIRO; LIVING IN VIENNA

I WORK IN JOURNALISM TO PAY MY BILLS SO I CAN TRAVEL MORE THAN MOST.

I’VE BEEN TO MANY ARAB AND EUROPEAN COUNTRIES-THE ARAB PEOPLE ARE A KIND PEACEFUL COLLECTIVE.

WHILE IN VIENNA, I HAD AN ARABIC FRIEND VISITING AND WE WERE OUT AT A RESTAURANT, SPEAKING ARABIC TO ONE ANOTHER. A GERMAN MAN APPROACHED US, DEMANDING THAT WE SPEAK ONLY THE NATIVE LANGUAGE IN HIS PRESENCE. I TOLD HIM I’LL SPEAK HOWEVER I PLEASE.

I TOO BELIEVE IN THE INTER CONNECTIVITY OF HUMAN BEINGS AND THAT ALL CULTURES AND SOCIETIES ARE DESERVING AND RELEVANT. WE JUST NEED TO CATCH UP WITH OURSELVES.

I AM SURPRISING MY INDIAN FRIEND

NITIM

WE SPEAK EVERY DAY. HE HAS NO IDEA I’M COMING.
