Merry Christmas to all our Ikea Episodes family! No, this month's episode is NOT a Christmas special, although the theme is quite a festive one... This time we met at IKEA to talk about: music! And more particularly traditional music, as suggested this month's lovely contributor, our dear friend Towhid. As Towhid said, traditional music is "a bridge between cultures. We don't need to get a visa to travel to their world. We need to close eyes and listen. It's enough." Beautiful, am I right? So tune in to hear about the music that we grew up with and the one that is still the soundtrack to our life! And let us know in the comments if you are familiar with any traditional music :) Sarah & Djamila
