In #Paris for a few days researching the life of #NoorInayatKhan's father, Hazrat Inayat Khan. Look what I found on the wall. A poster of him lecturing at my college in 1926! Privilege to be staying in the beautiful house which houses the archives. #NekhbakhtFoundation

Some beautiful new photos I found of #NoorInayatKhan and her brother Vilayat as kids and young adults. Noor went on to become an #SOE agent in #WWII and was awarded the #GeorgeCross. Vilayat was on a minesweeper during the #DDay landings. #Normandy #Paris #SpyPrincess #WAAF
