Hello World!

Hello world, my name is Hanoof and I have been living in the emerald city since March 2014. I will be sharing with you my stories and events.

(Yes .. It is a  long trip)

(Ha'il .. My Hometown)

(Jeddah .. Where we live now)

Originally, I am from Ha'il, Saudi Arabia, but my family settled in Jeddah, a city on the west coast, after years of traveling between many cities due to the nature of my father's job. He was a Brigadier General in the army but he retired and decided to settle in Jeddah. I got married last February and moved to Seattle immediately to begin the journey of our studies.

When I think of Jeddah, the first thing that comes to my mind is the sea. Jeddah is known for its beautiful coral reefs and unique marine life that attract divers from all over the world. It is also known for its rich history that goes back to more than 3000 years.

There are many things that I enjoy doing, but mostly I love reading, photography and occasionally writing (if I have time). Follow me on instagram if you like to view my photos and share with me some bits and pieces of my daily life :)
