CURRENT MISSION

Taking photos, making films.. and travelling.. a lot.

ABOUT ME

I believe that I'm on a journey of self-discovery that looks like isn't going to end anytime soon.. if ever.

I'm always contemplating new thoughts and metamorphosing to someone new or so I believe.
I'm a thoughtful person, a little introverted but I cherish deep connection with people when it happens. And for some reason I found that I can build some kind of rapport with people that I don't know really quick.

Philosophy,

I'm more of a realist, I'm not someone who usually get super excited about things. I always have big plans but not big expectations.

I believe life is absurd, and I've reached that belief through some hard walks in the jungle. But in perspective of that belief.. everything makes sense to me. And that's the core thing here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I should be able to host people in Alexandria if given the chance, and maybe in Cairo but that won't be sustainable.
But more that hosting people is meeting them. I'd love to go for a coffee or a beer sometime with someone I don't know. There's always something comforting about opening up to strangers.

I want to be hosted too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of the couchsurfing experience I had, happened outside of couchsurfing (the website).
Meeting people, hosting them and hosting me.

Interests

Film and photography. Those are my main interests, that I invested a lot of my time and energy and it looks like I'm going to keep doing that.

I write, occasionally, I used to be more serious about being a writer, now I'm a lazy ass when it comes to it. But I think in the right time. I'll write something.

Travelling,
There's a call inside me, a call of the wild. That I'll have to meet. Sooner or later. Sooner and later.

Philosophy,
I love to philosophize things up a bit. I can be a bullshitter too. :)
