Meditation, exercise, coffee and a conversation with my husband and sister. The beach, my brother, a good book and friends. If my day has some or all of those then I’m good to go!
Meditation and gratitude. My motto is “no matter what you’re doing, you’re doing it anyway so make the most of it and enjoy it.”
Care, respect, boldness and loyalty.
When I’m out of my comfort zone, when I’m in a new place meeting new people, when I get myself out of routine, and when I’m learning something new.
Firstly you should be having fun too; secondly good music; thirdly making guests feel at home; and last but not least, making sure everyone knows their guests are welcome too.
An art piece made by my brother as a wedding gift —he crafted it from beads I gifted him from Sudan. Also our collection of pots, an antique coffee grinder that my father gave me, and a collection of stones that my husband and I collect when we travel.
Everyone that knows me knows that when I come back from most of my trips I usually say I want to live there, but I felt it the most in Cape Town and Andalusia.
I’d say gypsy meets classic. I’m definitely not a jeans person! I like big earrings, big hair and big skirts one day, and a nice tailored suit with a sleek ponytail and sneakers the next. Generally I have to really relate to a trend to follow it.
Sneakers, a blazer and simple T-shirt with a skirt or pants.
Honestly? I never owned much jewellery until I got married and started to get gifted some pieces. You’ll find some watches, but I spend most of my money on experiences.
Now you’re making me count! I’d say around 40 pairs.
A face wash, moisturiser and sometimes toner, but I know I should start doing more.
The desert is my favourite place in the UAE, I just love being in the middle of it. You’ll also find me in Satwa and Karama, just walking around taking photos.
Yung Pueblo’s Lighter, and Between the Lines by Celine Zabad.
Rami Chami has a new set called Noema and I’m obsessed.
