Wadi - an Iraqi singer from
Canada, now living in San
Diego
With the crew of "As Is" persian comedy show (actor Ali Dean)
I have met so many wonderful people at
Zorba's:
Phillipa, Greek singer.
Debbie Akins, owner of D.Z Akins restaurant
Salam, owner of Al Bustan
Riyadh, owner of House of India
My two Brazilian friends, Ida and
Tarciana (another belly dancer)
My fire sword. Just like it
looks, it is very dangerous.
The flame is huge and hot.
Very hot.
Don't tell any one but I am
actually afraid of fire. I still
can't light anything with the
small matches. I need the
long, thick kitchen matches,
with which I feel safe.
Interestingly I have no
problem putting flaming
trays or swords on my head,
and swing lit fans around.
Isn't that weird?
After my New Year's Eve performance in
a funny party hat. No, I didn't dance in it,
but maybe I should have? It matched the
costume and the occasion.
I learned how to dance the Zembekiko, which is a lot of fun,
but it's not easy.

Violeta, Aimee, Dilek and
Lily

My first photo shoot in May 2003 by Heidi Paris.
Although I started taking classes in January 2002, and started performing at showcases within a few months, I do not have any pictures from that year.
My grandma My hometown:
Nyiregyháza
With my big sister Zsuzsi and 2 years in preschool
(pronounce as if in French:Jouji
at age 1 month
After the flaming sword
came the fire fans. I had
so much fun with fire, I
had to have more of it.
As you can see it's much
more dangerous, so I
need to wear pants with it.
