Overview
About Me
Narrated by Abdullah Bin Amar:
A person asked the Prophet Mohammad, peace and blessings be upon him, "Which qualities of a person are good"
The Prophet, pbuh, replied "Feed the people, and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not know."
ABOUT ME
I grew up on Vancouver Island surrounded by the Pacific Ocean on the most western coast of Canada. I am an easy going person, who likes to laugh and enjoys the company of those who like the same. My husband and I recently moved back to Vancouver Island from Morocco. I work teaching English to speakers of other languages in Victoria BC. Additionally, I'm a bit of a geography nerd, interested in peace, community, and landscape.
