Chaii Lab aims to create a virtual space of the feeling of being sat with friends for hours drinking tea and delving into deep convos about life. An experience that transcends background, nationality & language.
From convos about culture, society & race to laughs about relationships, life crises and careers plus everything in between. We’re 4 muslim women from the UK, US, Middle East & Canada working in healthcare, science, law and surveying. Much like the unique spices that come together in a perfect chai, our differences & similarities make our fun convos what they are
