Hey there,

My name is Farah El-Afifi. I’m originally from Cairo (Egypt), but I’ve moved a few times between there and Vancouver since I was four. I like to write quite a bit but I don’t really know what to tell everyone so we’re both in for a surprise. I joined Arts One for pretty much the same reasons everyone else did: I like to read, I like to write, I like to talk, and I like to be challenged.

My favourite colour is blue. I’m very passionate about making and listening to music. I sing. I play the guitar and the ukulele. I like art (and would be very down for a visit to the Vancouver Art Gallery anytime). I collect notebooks. I’m a list-maker. I like people and love getting to know them. I’d prefer it if you asked before you touched my hair (lol). I’d really like to major in International Relations and Journalism because I like to travel and intercultural exchange/awareness/studies are kind of my jam. I have a five-foot teddybear named Humphrey. I get self-conscious when I talk about myself for too long so this is, unfortunately, the end of the post. Let’s have a conversation sometime.

Thanks for reading,

Farah
