About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding out what I want to do with my life. Not an easy one, I tell you.

ABOUT ME

I love traveling (although I am not that well traveled yet) and my goal is to visit 100 destinations before turning 40.

I am interested in basically everything and I enjoy learning new skills, trying out new experiences and meeting new people. If you stop by my place I am going to teach you Origami :D

PHILOSOPHY

Do no harm. Be curious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host and show people around my town. I occasionally go to CS meetups and events.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in Morocco and that was so much fun. Met really cool people who certainly enriched my experience there.

I also surfed in Turkey and that was a lot of fun.

I met a lot of couchsurfers during my recent trip to Qatar and had lots of fun and interesting conversations with them.

I host people in Cairo. That has been fun too. People I host are usually very interesting and with good stories to tell. If I trust people I am hosting, I give them their own key to my place.

Interests

I enjoy long talks, walks, and the outdoors. I'm creative when it comes to things you can do with chocolate and specifically Nutella.

I appreciate sarcasm and value it in people.

Here's a list of things i love that is in no way comprehensive:

Diving - Ultimate Frisbee - Origami - Documentaries - Tea - Nutella - Bioinformatics - Science - Life stories - History - The Big Bang - Making better pancakes - Walking - Old stuff - Computers

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy thought-provoking movies with unpredictable endings. I can watch documentaries and eat fruits for life.

Here's another in-comprehensive list of random things that should fit in this section:

Game of Thrones - Charles Dickens - Edger Alan Poe - The Kite Runner - The Shawshank Redemption - Water for Elephants (The book) - Dexter - Trio Goubran - Imagine Dragons

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving the Thistlegorm shipwreck in the Red Sea

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Arabic (native language), Ultimate Frisbee and Origami.

I would like to learn a bit of your language whatever it is. If you can make good pancakes, I would like to learn that as well.
