About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having more interesting stories to tell my grand children someday.

ABOUT ME

Well ,at first, I don't feel comfortable to talk about myself, so I guess that means I'm a shy person and it takes me sometimes to get used to someone and start talking freely. Also, I'm quiet, easy going and workaholic guy. I am fond of traveling , but most of times I was a lonely traveler, although I like a good company so much. My friends says that I'm funny, honest, dependable and a kind person...so that's it.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to leave the world as a better place than when you came to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I shared evenings with members in Rio, Berlin and Beijing. Walked through the philosophers path in Heidelberg with one. Had a great launch with friends in London. And hanged out at Disney land Orlando with a German friend. I enjoyed all of that.
Later, I started being a guest in Saint Petersburg and then in Dusseldorf. It's even a more amazing experience.

Interests

Knees (I'm a consultant of knee surgery), traveling, meeting people with different backgrounds, languages and cultures, reading, history, politics , nature and a little of music.
I don't know if there is an official type of tourism that is called "Getting lost" type, but I almost spend 25% of my time in any new city getting lost. Although I'm used to that now, it was scary in some cities like Rio. I hope having friends through couch surfing will minimize my getting lost time.

Music, Movies, and Books

80's and 90's Scorpions, Queen, Tina Turner, UB40..etc
My favorite movies are not famous. The first is Dudly Moore's "Arthur" and the second was titled " Someone to watch over me" I think it was the precursor of "The Bodyguard". Otherwise, I like romantic comedies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Doing surgeries for continuous 43 hours!
Having a trip to Hippos/Crocodiles watch in lake Tanganyika in a leaking boat.
Jumping off Las Vegas' Stratosphere.
Whale watching trip in San Diego.
Three days desert Jeep safari in Sinai.
Cage diving with white sharks in Cape town.
