I'm originally from Iraq, but I've been living in Canada for the past 17 years. I am a software engineer, a social entrepreneur, and a Flamenco guitarist! I lived long enough in both Canada and Iraq to be fluent in reading and writing both English and Arabic. I've lived in several places around the world including Iraq, Jordan, the US, and Canada. I also visited London, Munich, Dubai, and Beirut. Within Canada, I've lived in Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto. Therefore, I really consider myself as an international citizen and identify with expats!
