About this author

Poet, writer, and philosopher, Fola was born in 1984, in Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs. He spent his childhood in Egypt, then traveled to Switzerland and graduated from Hotel Institute Montreux, in Switzerland.

Montreux was the turning point in Fola's life, back then he was never fond of writing, nor reading. Fola never intended to be a writer, but at the age of 20, he began recording his distinct thoughts down, for none could understand them.

Papers accrued, as Fola realized that it was meant to be, he combined all these thoughts, and began his writing voyage with "The Seed".
