I have. I grew up in Iran so it's always been kind of "normal". I don't do it on a daily basis, but once in a while it's nice to just hang out with friends and smoke.
it's yummy (especially the rose flavoured stuff), i have my own one, i bought it in dubai. it's such a pain to clean though, i hardly ever bother smoking it anymore..
DH and I bought a hookah pipe maybe 5 months ago. We also got to know this guy who makes and exports his own tobacco! His Kashmir Peach is to die for!!! It's really fun but the problem is it tastes too yummy that I forget it's bad for me :shame:
Jill, PinkSuade, from wikipedia:
Hookah (Urdu: حقہ hukka) or shisha (Arabic: شيشة or أركيلة, is a single or multi-stemmed (often glass-based) water pipe device for smoking; originating in India,[1][2][3] it has gained popularity, especially in the Arab World. A hookah operates by water filtration and indirect heat. It can be used for smoking many substances, such as herbalfruits and tobacco.
Yeah, you could probably find one on ebay. You could also look at any type of middle eastern grocery store if you're in a major city, since I'm sure they would have them there. That might be easier and cheaper.
