Hi guys!! I'm so happy to be back traveling and making videos again. I originally said in my last video that I would be studying abroad in Denmark this semester, but there were some visa issues so I am now doing 6 weeks in Rome, 6 weeks in Copenhagen and then 6 weeks in London I couldn't be happier that it ended up this way. I absolutely love Italy. I am a little late to posting this video sinc...

Hey guys, I'm back (and with a super long vlog too;))!! I have not been up to anything super exciting, just work and school, so I haven't had much to film.

memories from a year ago

Hi guys, I'm back! Sorry I've been gone for a super long time, I have not done much but school and work so my life hasn't been super exciting. Also, we are still taking safety precautions here in Arizona so I am trying to stay at home as much as possible. I decided that since a year ago this week I arrived in Norway, I would do a little bit of a recap from last year and also give you an update ...

coronavirus ruined my exchange year
มุมมอง 21K4 ปีที่แล้ว
This is very unexpected and I am devastated. I leave my home in Norway tomorrow and it is going to be quite a journey to get home, but I will film it all, as it might be helpful for people to see how coronavirus truly is effecting the whole world. I am so sad that my year here had to end this abruptly, but I hope I can return soon. I will get back to posting regular videos (from Arizona) soon e...

    Wow, you are too beautiful whomever see you shall believe that God is real, and whenever I see you I am always in a dream, and when we wake up we all will realize that all this life was nothing but a dream and that only God is whats true and real. I dont know how can atheists believe that such a very beautiful person like you came from monkeys hahaha 😄 There was a teacher whom didn't believe in the existence of God, He said to his students do you see God?, the students replied no we don't see God, so the teacher said if you don't see God it means there is no God, then a smart student stood up and said to the other students hey guys do you see the teachers brain?, then the students replied no we don't see the teachers brain, the student then said then the teacher is crazy he got no brain :0) عن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن شك في الله، وهو يرى خلق الله Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how a man-man/women-can doubt in the existence of God-/Allah-although he sees His creation. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن أنكر النشأة الأخرى، وهو يرى النشأة الأولى Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one denies the second life although he/she seen the first life-this life is actually a living proof of both the existence of its creator, as well as a clear proof that indicates that another life in heaven or hell may also be a very possible chance as well-. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لعامر دار الفناء، وتارك دار البقاء Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one inhabits this transient abode-and is so indulged in it-but ignores the everlasting hereafter abode, ​one God for all of us, all the universe shows unity with diversity, there are different things different creatures and different materials but are all made of particles and atoms ​Even if we will assume that there will not be an atom left of you after death, you still have proven as a created being that there is a Creator,you proved the existence of God even if you do not believe in God. ​God initiated everything, and he redo too, and it is evident. ​this life is temporary while the next is forever eternal either in paradise or burning in Hell fire good qualities are beneficial, and bad qualities are harmful So be good & do more good always for God sake and refrain from doing any evil or sin and worship only God alone who got no mother no father no son and is one not two nor three nor more always remember him and be mindful of him and worship him in the way he wants. One of the best good deeds a person can ever do is teaching people useful things or a useful skill 🙂 or caring for another person an elderly parent a wife/husband or a child or an ill person, or protecting an innocent person, Also spreading this message and not letting it stop with you.

    High taxes in Norway. Yes, true! But, the beauty of it is that it is all plowed back into the infrastructure - which then benefits the whole population, from birth to death. It made me laugh when you regarded 'air-drying' clothes as strange. A lot of people do that in the UK, where I live, and if you live by the coast, the smell of the fresh sea air in your clothing is really nice. Try it, you'd never want to dry them in a machine unless absolutely necessary - like on days when it rains all day.
