My Jordanian Friend Nardeen

If she cannot drive me, sometimes I take a taxi.

What types of clothing do you like to wear?:

I dress casually, but I like fashion too. I like to have a fashionable wardrobe. Usually, I wear jeans with a nice shirt. But it is winter now, so I wear jackets and scarves also.

What do you like to do in your free time?:

I like to go to the movies or go shopping. I also like the “jumping park.” The “jumping park” is a building full of trampolines. Usually, I like to spend time at home with my family.

What language(s) do you speak? How do you say "Hello" in your language?:

Arabic and English. I studied English in school for a long time, but I am still learning. I say “Marhaba” or “e-salam elekom” in Arabic to say hello.

Do you have pets?:

Pets are not as common here in Jordan. When I was young, my mother and uncle went to a farm for my uncle’s work. There was a dog with new puppies at this farm, so my cousin stole one of her puppies and put her in the trunk of the car. Then, later, my uncle found the puppy and called the owners to apologize. They said that we can keep the puppy, so we brought her to our backyard and named her Roxy. Then, after one week, we gave her to someone else because my dad doesn't like animals. This is the only pet that we ever had. But I love animals and I love to play with them.

Have you traveled? Where have you traveled to?:

I traveled only once, and I loved it. I went to the European country of Georgia with my mom. I wanted to see the sea and the forests. It was lovely. Someday, I want to go to France, Italy and even California.
