Het thema vrijheid is Hind op het lijf geschreven. Als dochter van een Marokkaanse vader en Nederlandse moeder is ze erg begaan met de wereld om haar heen en laat dat niet alleen bij woorden. Ze zette haar bekendheid in voor bijvoorbeeld Vluchtelingenwerk Nederland en ze heeft opgetreden met het Arab Orchestra of Nazareth om aandacht te vragen voor de problemen in de bezette gebieden.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
