Originally from Syria – I came to Scotland in 2020 after living in Greece and Germany. I am passionate about supporting refugees like myself and have worked providing legal info on Europe’s borders in Greece and in Calais and I have supported Arabic and Kurdish speaking kids in Schools here in Edinburgh.Recently I have completed an HNC in counselling. I have seen how vital it is to help people fleeing war and trauma to talk about their experiences. It is so important to let the pain out to make room for happiness.
My mother tongues are Kurdish Kurmanji and Arabic. I also speak Kurdish Sorani. In my spare time I love playing with my two year old daughter and inviting friends over for delicious Syrian brunches and BBQs.
