My name is Zenab and I'm 28 years old. I am honest, kind, l love everyone and very responsible. I have two kids, Sami and Fatima, who are the most beautiful things in my life and the love of my heart is Adam. He is very special to me and he supports me in everything.

I have come from Saudi Arabia 6 years ago and it wasn't an easy thing. I was worried and scared at the same time. I wasn't good in English and lost my grand-mom just few days before my flight. Everything was running through my head, but l stayed strong and nothing stopped me.

After l delivered my son Sami, the caesarean section wound was leaking and it was so painful. My husband and l went to the hospital and they took care of me. There was a nurse who was very nice and kind. She asked me if she could take my phone number and call me to check on me. That touched me more than anything, ever. And since that day we become like family, her daughter always called me my sister from another mother. Life it's not easy but we have to do our best and pray to Allah to make everything easy for us.
