She provides background about her life as a working female in Qatar and how the process was like behind the initiative. AlFardan elaborates on the story behind the opening of Flat 77 with her older sister and the challenges they faced along the way. AlFardan gave interesting insight about the intricate details with the interior that was put into the cafe to mimic her London apartment and as she puts ‘it is home away from home.’
