Speaking at TEDx

Dear readers, I am honoured to have been invited to speak at TEDxWaterloo on March 27, 2013 in my capacity as a food writer and photographer. I hope to see many of you there. For those of you who won’t be able to attend, the event will be live-streamed. My talk will also be on the TEDxWaterloo site soon after the event. Here is the link to my bio on the TEDx page.

  1. Congratulations! Those Ted talks are fabulous, I can’t wait!

  2. Wow, congrats, Shayma! This is awesome!

  3. Great! Congrats 🙂

  4. I’ll be watching the streaming feed for sure, congratulations, Shayma!

  5. What an Honor and what a great news! I love ted talks and I love your blog. Hoping to see your talk soon. BTW what are you going to speak about

  6. Oh wow, thats awesome. Will you post a link to the video as soon as it’s up? What is the general theme you’ll be talking about (along with food, obv)?

  7. Thank you so much, everyone. The theme of this TEDx is “Chasing Home” – so my talk will be related to my idea of home – i.e., Pakistan – and how food plays a role in shaping that concept. It will be related to the “mandate” of my blog, which is to show Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran in a different light than how the media depicts this region. The ideas are taking shape as I type this 🙂 I shall post the video online, as well as the link for live-streaming the event.

  8. congrats Shayma – looking forward for the video 🙂
