Youssef Abroad

Omar

Youssef's little brother, the king of video-call jokes

  • cheeky
  • funny
  • curious
  • secretly misses his brother

Did you see the Queen?

Omar is ten and has opinions about everything. He pops into every video call with a new question ("Is it true it rains every day?", "Do they eat beans for breakfast?") and laughs loudest when Youssef gets something wrong.

He pretends he doesn't miss his big brother. He does, a lot.

Why he matters

Omar asks the questions every learner wants to ask about life abroad, and his jokes make Youssef's mistakes easy to remember.

Fun facts

  • He wants Youssef to bring him a real London bus. A big one.
  • He learns English from video games and corrects Youssef's pronunciation.
  • His favourite word is "actually", and he uses it in every sentence.
