- Introduction:
- "Hi I'm Lisa. I use to live in Cairo Egypt and left in 2000. I love the middle east culture, foods and traditions. Sadly, having been away from Egypt I've lost almost all of my arabic except for limited words. "
- What is something distinctly 'You' which most people don't know about?
- "Hmm. well I am an indian classical dancer!"
- What is your favorite Middle Eastern Dish?
- "Hummas from the naguid mahfouz cafe in cairo. It's the best. haven't found anything that comes close to it. "
- How did you find this group and, now that you're here, what do you want from it? For example, do you prefer Middle Eastern Music events, Dinner Parties, Language Workshops, Live Theatre, or just getting together to meet new people and have fun?
- "I'd be interested in music events/concerts, getting together, dinner parties, language workshops. Everything."
- Have you visited the Middle East, and, if so, where and in what capacity? For that matter, where have you traveled outside the US?Do you speak other languages besides English & Arabic?Feel free to share whatever info you'd like.
- "I lived in Cairo for 3 years. I have travelled or lived in in India, Germany, Israel, Cairo, taiwan, france, italy, greece, "
- Do you speak Arabic? If so, what dialect(s). Do you know Modern Standard Arabic (Fusha?) Can you read, write & speak Fusha? Answering this question will help us to better offer suitable language workshops for the club.
- "I speak a little arabic, i learned modern standard arabic but have lost too much of it. I would need to start over."
