This group is open for everyone interested in all things Arabic, even politics, Poetry and literature, fine arts, costumes, or travel (yes we'll try to travel), or just socializing around the culture, or music, although we realize people mostly focus on the language and that's fine. If you share this passion and curiosity, and you're willing to share knowledge, we'd love to hear from you. And as in most meet up groups, we will encourage arranging entertaining events from time to time that will enrich and excite our experiences and memories. And a last note, this group harbors no discrimination. all faiths, ethnicities, including Jewish friends with affinities and ties to the region, all political orientations, sexual orientations, and all safe lifestyles are welcome, including responsible alcohol drinking, all types of dance, and absolutely no pressure on clothing choices. See you soon ..
