Amazing Race All Stars

Who is your favourite team? Here is mine:
Charla Faddoul and her cousin, Mirna Hindoyian.

I’m not watching this popular tv show until I saw this team (Charla and Mirna, known as cousin) in Amazing Race All Stars. It’s very entertaining to watch this team and also other teams on their race to win $1 million prize. See it on Monday at Astro AXN (channel 17).

Charla & Mirna are first cousins from Phoenix and Towson, Maryland, respectively. Both are Armenian and were born in the same hospital in Syria, one month apart. They emigrated to the United States when they were young children. Charla & Mirna know that physically they are quite different, but say they “fill each other’s gaps with strengths and weaknesses.” In addition, between the two of them, they speak a variety of languages, including Armenian, Turkish, French and Spanish, and have traveled extensively to foreign countries.

Charla says she is married to the man of her dreams and is manager/co-owner of ten sportswear stores. She has a form of dwarfism and says she “certainly does not consider it a limitation.” In fact, she says she hopes “to show the world what I can do and break all stereotypes about dwarfs!”

Mirna is an attorney who graduated from the University of Maryland School of Law at age 23, the youngest in her class. While she describes herself as “sometimes too competitive, strong-willed and ambitious,” she blows off steam by doing some favorite activities such as running and cycling. Mirna also claims to be a frequent winner at blackjack tournaments.
