Recklessly travelling the globe. Working for an international NGO, which sees me based half the time in Amman and half the time in Beirut.

Things I love: new places, scratching below the surface, climbing mountains, getting lost, smiling at strangers, DIY food safaris, improv theatre, urban exploration, making documentaries, morning yoga, evening meditation, kayaking, art galleries, long breakfasts, smokey whisky, train rides, live music, running, mountain biking, swing dancing, embracing randomness, saying yes.

In the words of Susan Sontag, "I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect, share, learn and experience more of this great world. A recent trip to Iran reminded me how great the CS community is and inspired me to finally sign up.

What I Can Share with Hosts
