Hello and Welcome


I’m Mariam Navaid Ottimofiore, author of The Guilty Can’t Say Goodbye and This Messy Mobile Life.​
Mariam Navaid Ottimofiore – writer, author, speakerPicture
Here you’ll find out more about my fiction and non-fiction books which center around moving, multicultural identities and expat life. My global life is always the inspiration behind my books. Every few years, I have changed countries, cultures, languages and communities, and as a result, my sense of identity, home and belonging is ever developing on the move. I am an expert in butchering every new language I learn, I’m perpetually lost in every new place I call home, I can never remember my new phone number or my new address and making my morning cup of coffee requires an international adapter or two. The one thing that has remained a constant after living in 10 countries, 13 cities and 4 continents, is my love for writing. I write to process my global adventures and I am passionate about bringing cross-cultural people to the page. I hope you will come along on some of these adventures with me and let my words take you to faraway places. 
It's great to have you here and I hope you enjoy looking around.

Mariam
