Chatting With BipinDas | Wikipedia | Writing | Languages And More

Today I talk with Bipin Das, a friend whom I met back in 2012 when were working on a cloud computing project in Saudi Arabia. Bipin is different; he spends, on average, 2 hours a day writing and editing on. This is a random chat with a friend I always look up to. We talk about languages, living in Saudi, and so much stuff.

Chatting With Jennifer Lynn | Radio Life | Morning Show | Travel And More

Some of you know that I went on sabbatical mid of 2019, and one of the places that we visited was Marrakesh in Morroco. My friend Anass Koudies recommended a traditional cocking workshop outside the city, so I and the family went there, and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Marrakesh. One of the people that I got to know in the workshop was Jennifer Lynn, host of the Morning Edition on NPR radio. She was playing with our son and later in the day I got to know she's a professional radio host. We talked about podcasting, radio and so many stuff. When we returned to our home in Riyadh, I asked Jan to come to the show and talk about radio life. I wanted to know what it is like to wake up every day at 3:30 AM ! and boy, I was so intimidated having a professional host on my show! The voice quality is okay, but not perfect.

Chatting With Eva-Lotta Lamm | Sketchnoting | Traveling around the world | Improv

Chatting With Eva-Lotta Lamm | Sketchnoting | Traveling around the world | Improv

Today episode is different. If you been following what I am tweeting/writing recently you would notice I am spending a lot of time learning about sketching. Long story short, I was reading “pencil me in” Christina Wodtke and one of the people who was featured in the book was Eva-Lotta Lamm where she was explaining “how to take your illustration to the next level” – her work and advice stood out for me. I started to follow Eva-lotta on Instagram and day after day I discover how awesome she is.



So who’s Eva-lotta? Eva-Lotta Lamm is a User Experience Designer, illustrator, and visual thinker. She grew up in Germany, worked in Paris and London for a few years before packing up her backpack and go traveling the world for 14 months. She has over 12 years of experience working on digital products as an in-house designer for Google, Skype, and Yahoo! as well as freelancing and consulting for various agencies and her own clients. After being a (semi-)nomad for 2 years, she is now based in Berlin, helping her clients to make complex problems visual so they can ‘see’ them from a fresh perspective and work on solving them more efficiently.



We talk about how she got into art, and how she moved to Paris and then London. How one day she packed her bags to travel around the world. We chat about working for corporates vs freelancing and then we stumble upon note-taking and how she recorded her reflections through sketch noting and finally how she feels about paper vs. digital. Not just that, we talked about improv and some deep stuff like bringing awareness in the learning process which Eva-lotta call the intentional practice. Really deep stuff. I think you guys gonna enjoy this episode. So .. get a notebook ready and please enjoy my conversation with Eva-Lotta.

Chatting With Von Glitschka | Creativity | Creative process | Show your work | Compete with yourself

Chatting With Von Glitschka | Creativity | Creative process | Show your work | Compete with yourself

Hmm, I don’t if you know this or not, but after turning 30. I got into the mode of exploring hobbies, and one of the things I wanted to do for a while is learning how to draw. Fortunately, around this time there was a five-day workshop led by a guy called Von glitschka organized by Ithra center in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. I didn’t know who Von was at that time, but I discovered later that he’s a well-known creative director @ Glitschka Studios and he created a ton of artwork for various businesses around the world. Hundreds of thousands of people viewed his courses on Lynda.com which range using drawing for communication to advance illustration techniques. I had so much fun learning from Von at the workshop, and I wanted to host him on the show to learn more about how he got into drawing. We talk about different topics like how to exercise creativity and understand the creative process which applies to any creative profession. We also chat about the importance of side projects, showing your work and finally how to compete with yourself. I got a lot from this conversation; I hope you will have the same. If you have any feedback or comments, feel free to hit me up on twitter @akhmees and make sure you check Von courses on Lynda.com.Links:How to market yourself webinarVon on twitterVon courses on LyndaGlitschka Studios

Chatting With Karim Safwat | Dahab | Slow-cooking | Decision Making

Chatting With Karim Safwat | Dahab | Slow-cooking | Decision Making

At the end of 2017, I was visiting Dahab, a small town on the southeast coast of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. One day I was looking for a coffee, and a neat restaurant caught my attention, it wasn’t clear what they were serving, so I asked the guy who was standing in the entrance. His name is Karim, and he told me about his new restaurant called Zanooba where they serve slow-cooked food, and he asked if I wanted to try it. I said why not! Later in the evening, I stopped by the restaurant, and while I was waiting for the food, Karim and I started to talk, and he told me briefly how he quietted his job and moved to Dahab, that night I ended up spending 4 hours in the restaurant. Today I decide to call Karim and talk with him about Dahab, leaving the cooperate job, slow cooking and decision making in life!

Chatting With Dag Vegger | Folding Bikes | Travel | Reading

Today I chat with Dag Vegger. An engineer and adventurous. I met Dag in Florence, Italy where the family and I were having dinner, and my son Abdullah were playing and making a lot of noise. Dag was sitting next to us, and he was reading on Kindle during the dinner. I approached Dag afterward and wanted to apologize for the sound that my son made and ended up chatting with Dag for half an hour about folding bikes, books and so many stuff! He shared his blog with me that evening, and I spent the night reading his stories, where I concluded ……. this guy is impressive! Today I chat with Dag about travel, minimalism, folding bikes and books.

Chatting With Chris Saden | Creating An Impact | Teaching | Learning How To Learn

Today I chat with Chris Saden. A teacher, an engineer, and student. I came to know Chris when I enrolled in Udacity Data Analytics Nanodegree where Chris created along with Facebook data scientist a module called “explanatory data analytics with R”. It was one of my favorite modules in the Nanodegree and Chris did an amazing job guiding us through the course, that led me to check out his background, which was surprisingly unconventional. He comes from science & art background, he used to be a teacher for high school students and then joined Udacity to create a couple courses in data, math and other stuff. Today I chat with him about teaching, creating an impact and learning how to learn
