I am an Iraqi born, US raised filmmaker. I started this blog to document my trip back to Iraq, with my Father, after being away for over 20 years. Part of this project will be a documentary video that I will be producing with my wife.

My wife and I both wrote in this blog during our Iraqi trip between January 29 and February 13th, 2004.
