Maria is joined by Bjork and her sister in law, Kashmala, to speak about the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, Ramadan. Bjork, an Atheist, and Kashmala, Muslim, both share what Ramadan means to them, what the day to day in this holy month looks like and we speak about how non-Muslims can still get informed and involved in this festivity.

Joining Maria we have Karina Alvarez, who through a light-hearted chat gives us a feel of what the life of a professional ballet dancer is like. Karina is originally from Medellin, Colombia, and after graduating from high school she moved to New York City, where she now lives, on a full merit scholarship to study at the Joffrey Ballet School in their four-year Ballet Trainee Program.
