Do yourself a favor and watch the above video before reading the rest of this post.
Yeah, you can't always judge a book by its cover. Now that you've seen the funny part, meet John bin London. You might think he is a Saudi who has been raised in the UK, but no. This Nottingham native only began learning Arabic in the last few years. He started off with the language, and then wanted to learn the Arabic alphabet and then got into the history and culture of Saudi Arabia. He finally got to visit that land a couple of years ago. Those who know say John's Arabic is fluent but not perfect, and very good for someone who wasn't raised speaking it. He has also mastered different Arabic dialects. Learn more about his journey in this video. The documentary is mostly in Arabic, so you'll need to turn on the closed captions for English. The English parts have Arabic captions.
