How did you meet your significant other?

I walked into a rooming house to see a room and my fiancé was the house manager back then. I didn’t move into that house right away but I couldn’t stop thinking about him. About two months later I unexpectedly moved into that rooming house. After that we never did part, both knowing that this was the start of something permanent. B’s eyes sparkle eternally.

What’s a cultural tradition from your country that you love?

The mark of spring, Basant, the kite flying festival in the Punjab is vibrant and quite challenging. Children sometimes have their kite strings lined with glass in order to cut other kites down. It’s very competitive for especially the boys. My younger brother, Kamraan, fared quite well. Basant in Lahore, Pakistan; flying kites upon the rooftops of homes that can be seen as far as the eye can see.
