About me

Photo by Sarah Carr

30 years old Physician. Used to work in the El Nadeem Center for Treatment and Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence for three years. I wake up every morning in Cairo, Egypt.

You can visually see my current interests here.

I have been a web citizen since 1997. This is not my first web page on the internet, but this is my first personal page.

I usually miss deadlines, I am a pathological procrastinator.

Well, I actually don't know what to write here. So if you have questions or ideas about what I should be writing about myself, please tell me.

My email is mostafa@gmail.com

About this blog

I created this blog so I can easily and quickly publish things I find interesting to others and experiment with ideas of my own. Although, I find there are some limitations to this blog, I can't get very personal.

Most of the posts will have a local theme to it, since I think this would make it more interesting for the small yet incredibly bright and innovative Egyptian blogosphere. I blog in English since all my friends can read English and I do have a small number of non-arabic speaking friends I now blog in English and Arabic. I also hope that people from other places around the world would read my point of view on things.
