Okay Sign

We all know this sign as "The okay sign" to show that everything is perfectly done, the work is okay or maybe your pleased. However, in some cultures this sign is an insult. For instant, in Brazil and Greece, Turkey, Italy, and Russia; this sign is actually a grave insult. So please people if you are planning on visiting one of the listed countries don't use this sign. We don't want you to get into any troubles :)

PS: I hope you enjoy this category!

About 7azawi

Who are we? What is it about? Why was it created? 7azawi was actually born in August, 2010. However the idea started way back, when we first traveled to study abroad. The love of our country, our heritage and our tradition grew remarkably during these years. So hopefully through 7azawi we can reflect this love to Kuwait. We will try to connect us more with our lovely past and heritage, especially in this modernized world and all the globalization we start to forget our roots and what individualize us and make us special. To cut it short; we will simply talk about lots of stuff, share experiences and focus on our past to have a better future. 7azawi group members are friends who met abroad. They built their relationship based on their love for their country. We stayed hours talking about life and Kuwait news. Some of us stayed and the others went back. We stayed good friends although the distance and time difference. And we know that we stayed friends because of the memories we shared. And to us these memories don't go away easily, like the old saying "3ashan el3shra". So we decided to have many more memories but this time we want to share them with everyone.
