Amr from Egypt : A global citizen who's found his "forever home" in Tasmania

from 177 Nations of Tasmania · host Mark Thomson

Amr was born in Egypt but received his early education in Saudi Arabia before moving to Malaysia, then Queensland and Melbourne, and more recently, Tasmania.  However, he still remains rooted in his Egyptian identity and during school times in Saudi Arabia, he would frequently return to family in Egypt in school holidays. As a result of his education and upbringing in a progressive Egyptian family living abroad, Amr sees himself largely as a "global citizen", but it wasn't until he arrived in Tasmania that he felt that he really found a place that truly felt like home, and he was especially drawn to the sense of community that he connected with aspects of Egyptian life. Food is also a big part of Amr's life and he has just recently left his job in advertising to embark on a new passion running a food business.
