Hi,
My name is Nada, I was born and raised in Damascus, Syria. I grew up privileged in terms of being raised in a good, well educated, influential family. Both of my parents were lawyers, my mother is an accomplished writer as well. I grew up in a family of girls, and my parents made sure we were not intimidated in a society where male has all the privileges. I was taught from early age that male and female are equal, in rights and responsibilities. that respect is an essential pillar in treating people regardless of their origins and backgrounds. and that education is our tool to succeed in life.
I got married and moved to the states, and then to Saudi. I am still moving back and forth between the 3 countries, through my traveling and work, I got exposed to different societies, cultures and customs. Eventually, this colorful life got me interested in analyzing people behavior and in writing about this particular subject.
I hold a degree in Dental Surgery (DDS). I also taught for ten years in BISJ (the British International School of Jeddah) in Saudi Arabia.

ReplyDeleteHi Nada! It's interesting reading these perspectives, and I can't help feeling a bit confused about where I stand, as a non-Arab male! I think it will be revealing for me to consider how many of the characteristics you ascribe to the MEM would also apply to many of us... Glad your brain is still as restless as ever! Russ
