Hello Everyone!
You can call me Aminah and I am 21 and I was raised Roman Catholic. I converted to Islam on 24 February 2013. I live in Wisconsin and I am a college senior.
I am also an Independent Consultant for Thirty-One.
This blog is my space to freely express who I am. I ask that you respect that.
Here is my post where I talk about
my first time in a mosque.
And here is the Tumblr where I am reblogging my personal posts on Islam (and the place where you can find them all a lot easier than going through all of these posts).
I am also highly allergic to three very common things: gluten, dairy, and alcohol (in all forms which sadly includes most lotions/shampoos/deodorants).
May God bless you and
grant you a beautiful day.
Hey, I'm also on Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram (all as @adventuringafar)!
