Episode 006: Moulay Charai "One Guy's Story of Love and the Pursuit of Happiness"


Listen Later

Welcome to The Get Up & Get Out Podcast, I’m your host Steve Krisel and this is Episode 006 with Moulay Charai.
Moulay is a wonderful human being from Morocco who got hooked on a girl from Russia. At 23, he makes friendly contact with a Russian girl and they start emailing back and forth as penpals, which quickly turned into a serious relationship between the two of them. Just days after finishing his Master’s degree, he tells his parents that he is moving to Moscow. 
Moulay and I had some time to get into Moulay’s life in Morocco, his studies, Natasha’s secret visit to Morocco, getting married, and experiencing an unfortunate scandal in the first 24hrs of landing in Russia. We also discuss in-depth, his struggles to find work, a story of major regret, a false sense of security, and well, you’ll have to listen to hear the rest! 


Thank you to Moulay for coming on the show, sharing with us all his wonderful and interesting story. By the time you hear this, Moulay and his wife will have given birth to their second child and starting a new chapter in their life. I’d like to wish them all the best and I have been personally touched by his story, his presence, and his friendship. 
Thank you to all of you for joining us this week. We really appreciate you!

If you would like to let us know how we’re doing, please head on over to iTunes and leave us a review. Reviews are a great way to spread the word and it also helps us to deliver great shows week after week.

On a more personal note, during this time of COVID-19, I want to speak to you all for just a moment: 
These are trying times for all of us and I’d like to say that if you know someone living abroad, please take some time this week to get in touch with them, especially if you haven’t done so in a while. Living abroad brings many challenges to people’s lives; not just to the ones they leave behind. Life for ex-pats can get extra lonely and I’m sure that the ones you know who are living in another country would really appreciate the connection. Send an email, a hand-written letter (or take a picture of it and send that in an email), send a video message or jump on a video call. There are so many ways to let people know that they are missed or that you’re thinking of them! 
I hope that you all have a positive and productive 
week but… it’s time for me to
Get Up and Get Out. 
Live Loud. Love Louder
