Hi Fahd,

I'm writing because I want to get in touch with the Omani side of the family. My Aunt Hessa got your email address from your mom. Aunt Hessa says you're one of my cousins, and you're about my age - 23. I just finished my degree in economics at North Dakota State University in Fargo. Fargo is the biggest city in North Dakota, and I live there with my parents.

I'd like to know about you and what you're interested in. Are you a student, or do you work? What kind of sports do you like? Aunt Hessa says you live in Nizwa. Can you tell me what it's like? And is it true that everyone in Oman is really into soccer? Sorry for all the questions, but this is an unusual situation - we're strangers, but we're also family.

Our side of the family moved to North Dakota from Oman a long time ago. They had a farm in the Red River Valley in North Dakota, and the old house is still there (see attached photo).

Hope to hear from you soon.
