What happens when an idealistic American packs her bags and moves to Syria at 22 with dreams of saving the world? International relations - of a type she didn't expect.
In this hour of stand-up, Annette Mullaney takes you on a hilarious journey through cultural misunderstandings, romantic entanglements, navigating the US immigration system, and the sometimes painful realities of love.
With sharp observations and unforgettable stories, Annette offers a fresh and funny take on love, life abroad, culture shocks, and everything along the way.
