About

TL; DR: 

patron saint of asking infinite questions.

Poster child of eating cheese boards for dinner.

Who am I?

My name is Halah Flynn — I'm a rookie in adulthood and D.C. life. 

In 2016 I left my North Carolina roots and set up camp in Washington, D.C. — that’s how I came to create Capitol Hal.

Some ways I’d describe myself: Syrian-American, intersectional feminist, long-winded storyteller, crying shoulder, type 2 Enneagram, Leo sun.

What's this blog about?

Primarily, it’s a lifestyle blog, but don’t expect pictures of lattes, hotel reviews, or outfits of the day. I want the coverage of my experience to honor the full spectrum of young womanhood. You’ll hear my views on mental health, building community, conscious living and — most importantly — where to buy the best gourmet cheese in D.C.
