Anyone who knows me knows that I can't write without a good playlist. If you're interested in immersing yourself in the soundscape that has helped pen these words with a bit more ease, then you're more than welcome to stream these songs on your preferred platform. Some of these are mentioned in the story (*).

Emel Mathlouthi — Holm (Dream)
this song kicked me right in the feels and ignited my imagination. It's a beautiful take on Aref's 1968 (1999) song Soultane Ghalbha by the talented Tunisian, Emel Mathlouthi.
