Being a Gazan resident and having to live a life that is like no other, I felt the need to speak out about what I witness. Advocacy for Palestine was the answer. It has been two years since I got involved in the work of advocacy and I am passionate about it as much I am about medicine.

This blog is in part about my first-hand experiences in the Gaza Strip as a Palestinian freedom fighter. It is about Samah the young lady who feels excited when she gets a pair of new shoes, the medical student who adores medicine, the daughter of the best dad, who’s an electrician, and the best mum who’s a dedicated mother of 8, the friend who has an over-expressive face and a contagious laugh, and the human being who breaks down and rises over and over again.

I read a lot in politics, medicine, psychology, science, astronomy and literature. I think of myself as a global citizen. I believe everyone of us has a responsibility to fight inequality, to refrain from action which compromises an individual’s well-being, and avoid contributing to environmental degradation. I relate to human suffering and successes around the world. I appreciate diversity and am in continuous pursuit of knowledge,peace and justice. All this will be reflected in my posts.

Passionate, Perfectionist, and Palestinian I am.
