My seven-year journey in Saudi Arabia has been transformative. I arrived with expectations and assumptions, but quickly realised that the Kingdom was not what I had imagined.   

7 By LAMIA is a testament to my personal growth. I came as a wife and mother, and Saudi Arabia showed me how to be more confident and assertive. I discovered new talents and passions. I learned to appreciate the value of tolerance and serenity.

Saudi Arabia has taught me to see beyond the veil, helped me realise my potential and broadened my horizons, just as it does for itself. 

This is also a tribute to the film that inspired me, “7 Years in Tibet”, starring Brad Pitt.

Saudi Arabia is truly special, and this is my tribute to her… For Saudi is a lady to me, she has been my Wise Mentor, who constantly inspired me to choose feeling grateful and joyful.
