Did you plan to be a TV presenter or did it happen accidentally?
\n<\/strong>I always loved and admired the world of media and art. Acting, singing and TV presenting always infatuated me, but in my surrounding all these were not socially acceptable. I graduated with a degree in political science and got married right after. When my three children started school, I discussed presenting with my husband, started working on myself and in the year 2009 I was already on air.<\/p>\n

What inspires you when selecting the themes for your TV shows?
\n<\/strong>My main show, Talk of the Town, covers current events in all fields. I can easily say that during the nine years of the show, we shed light on hundreds of important matters.<\/p>\n

If you weren\u2019t a TV presenter, what else would you have been?
\n<\/strong>An actress maybe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

What are the pros and cons of being a successful woman in the Middle East?
\n<\/strong>Just like the pros and cons of being a successful man, jealousy and unethical competition.<\/p>\n

Your shows included themes about humanitarian issues, which one touched your heart the most?
\n<\/strong>My main love and devotion goes to \u2018Talk of the town\u2019 as it coves real human cases and sheds light on them.<\/p>\n

What do you do in your spare time?
\n<\/strong>I\u2019m a home person. When I\u2019m not working, I\u2019m always home taking care of the house and my children.<\/p>\n

What is family to you?
\n<\/strong>It\u2019s one\u2019s life investment and the entity that matters the most.<\/p>\n

Are there any hobbies you practice during your free time?
\n<\/strong>I love travelling a lot and I do travel whenever it\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n

What is your favourite travel destination?
\n<\/strong>I like exploring new countries, but I keep going back to France. I lately became fond of London as well because my kids studied there.<\/p>\n

Could you tell us about your social circle?
\n<\/strong>It\u2019s very narrow. I love people and I am a very friendly person, but I dislike attending events and gatherings that do not add any good neither to my life nor the lives of others.<\/p>\n

Where do you see yourself in the upcoming five years?
\n<\/strong>Hopefully still working and witnessing my children\u2019s success.<\/p>\n

Does the physical appearance come in favour of success?
\n<\/strong>Yes, it does, as a first impression, but also people tend to judge good looking women more harshly.<\/p>\n

Q&A:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Favourite food?
\n<\/strong>Seafood.<\/p>\n

Favourite clothes and shoes brand?
\n<\/strong>Anything that makes me feels comfortable and pretty.<\/p>\n

Three things in your handbag you can\u2019t live without?
\n<\/strong>My credit card as no one welcomes you without it, my mobile and a pack of wet napkins.<\/p>\n

Last thing you googled?
\n<\/strong>I was reading about the history of tea; its origins trade and etiquette.<\/p>\n

Anyone you blocked recently?
\n<\/strong>I do block impolite followers though they\u2019re not many.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
