Egyptians began to immigrate during the late 1800s. They emigrated from Egypt at this time due to the end of World War II, and its effects on Egypt. These effects include the Suez Crisis as well as the overthrow of the Egyptian Monarchy, and of course the great depression which also affected Egypt.

After several years of thinking, my parents finally make the decision to move to Canada for good, where I am born. We rent a condominium, which my parents prepared before moving to Canada. Our family friend helped us around with everything in Canada. The neighborhood which we lived in was beautiful, we had an elementary school close by for my eldest brother (Omar), and a park right underneath our apartment.

After my birth, we spent a few years in Canada, then we moved around to Egypt for a few years, and by the end, we settled in Saudi Arabia. During this time, as we moved back and forth to and from Canada, we happened to explore Mississauga, and absolutely loved the friendly, peaceful environment there.

I went to school at Jeddah Prep and Grammar School in Saudi Arabia from nursery (kindergarten) to year 4 (grade 5).

We came to Canada once again in the summer of 2008, and officially settled there for the second time. After a while of searching, we got a house in Oakville Ontario. I went to Emily Carr Public School from grade 5 to grade 8. Then I went to high school at Garth Webb Secondary School, and I continue to go there today in grade 10.
