Manar's Story

Life Hi. Life... well, Atilla (class of '78) and I have been married 22 years and we have 3 kids. Tim is in his 2nd year at university, Reeny is 17 & off to uni. next summer, and Aydin is in the 3rd grade. We moved to Canada last June, after living as expats for 19 years! India was our last port-of-call and we spent 6 sun-drenched years soaking up it's culture and tropical rhythm. We still haven't settled and I just hope to be here long enough for Reeny to graduate from university. Any time after that is a wonderful bonus. I've loved raising our kids and have grown into quite the tree-hugger... and I mean that affectionately. Atilla and I both love the outdoors, although we approach it in our unique way. He's still full of energy, loves to walk and bike around and enjoys working with his hands... puttering around with plants, building and fixing-up things. I love a natural setting.

mble at how I love to perch on a large rock, or plop down on the grass or in the woods, to meditate on a breeze :) My favorite spot is in the mountains of Vancouver, where the energy is palpable. As my older kids get ready to leave home, and the growing awareness towards our environmental issues sparks renewed hope, I'm reflecting more and more on how to take a proactive role here in Toronto. So that's where I am. Looking for where I fit. And when Reeny goes off to uni., hopefully the University of British Columbia as she'd like, I hope to have found my environmental niche :) It's that or have a bunch of kids :) And yet, Atilla is so looking forward to his retirement... he dreams of early retirement... that I can help him best by nurturing nature, instead of new babies. And with that little peek into my window, you're pretty caught up for now. I would love to hear from old friends... find out how things are, where you're going... old news, new news... would love to hear it all. Be Well, Manar
