Why I am building Maydan
I used to teach Swedish to people who had moved here for jobs at the big tech companies. Salary, flat, title. Nobody to eat dinner with on a Wednesday.
Since then I have built the Nordics' largest remote work community, thirty thousand members in a year, and zawji.se for Muslims who want to marry. Maydan solves the same problem for the rest of the week. I'm starting in Stockholm, one city at a time. If something goes wrong, write to me directly, I read everything myself.
What I want to build is easy to say and hard to do: no Muslim in Sweden should have to be alone in a new city, or as a new Muslim, if they do not want to be. Not because someone happens to add you to a group, but because you can say what you want to do yourself and know that someone will join in.
