Meet Your Captain

A portrait of the author, Salah Nomad.
Born in Morocco’s oldest city, my path was forged in smoky cybercafés and shaped by a twenty-year journey across the Mediterranean. I’m not a guru; I’m a bridge-builder, a cultural translator, and a fellow traveler. This book is the map of my journey. I hope it helps you navigate yours.
