Ahlan wa Sahlan!

[Nad]

Hey everyone :) I'm Nada (pronounced ned-uh); nad for short. I'm 20, and an international university student from Egypt studying in the UK, been veggie for about 7 years, vegan for 1 and now I'm slowly transitioning to high raw so thought joining this forum would be a great start. Vegetarianism (let alone raw veganism) isn't very common in Arab culture so things should get interesting when I go home for the summer in a couple of weeks :rolleyes:

hello :)

I remember arab meals from when I was a child and my parents had friends from the region. At least there are some amazing fruits!

You can do it. You do not need anyone's permission. Your health is your responsibility and nobody else's.
Good luck.

Thanks for the welcome everyone :D
Mystic - once I get a little more comfortable experimenting I might try and recreate some of my favourite Egyptian/Middle Eastern dishes a la raw :eat
