Its pretty evident, that I am Fatima (only in real life) but I am shadeed Monica otherwise (FRIENDS pun intended)
Raised in UAE, grew up (in the most literal terms) in Pakistan, moved to Washington DC just recently (Feb 2018), and experiencing the newly expat, responsible, married life with my best friend Shahzeb (we come part n parcel everywhere)
I have always had the most mediocre life but I try to think and make my mind work in the most extraordinary ways!
I am most thankful for the invention of strawberry icecream and biryani and for the existence of my only sibling and my ONLY husband.
Find more about me, my life, my thoughts and my experiences in what we call as blogs these days! Meet you there.
