Karim

South of the border, Karim was unknowingly starting down his own path as a fixer. He was from the Syrian capital Damascus but grew up partly in the United Arab Emirates, where his father was a businessman and where English is more the lingua franca than Arabic. Karim returned to Syria in the early 2000s to study economics at university and then start a job at a luxury hotel. He would sometimes lead VIP guests around on tours, learning both to charm foreigners and to objectify and neatly package Syria for them.
