Heya! My name’s Bakar. I’m an International Relations student and emergency nurse ✌️im reaaaalllyyyy keen on travelling more, meeting new people, exploring local cultures and studying different countries’ history!!! oh and I also make YouTube videos on geopolitics 🤓 I've just MOVED TO LEBANON from Australia to make a difference in the homeland!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My goal with travelling is to understand a country through the eyes of its people. I like to throw away my glasses and indulge the lens of the locals. That’s why I’m here. To meet people. To grow my views. To understand diversity and how different people see things… (I sound like Ghandi rn)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My life. That is all. 💀
Ummmmm…. I established a youth organisation when I was in high school to help kids off the street and set their lives in order… I organised for over 200 youth to get picked up, go to shared events like football tournaments etc. Pretty crazy that I was 15/16 when I set that up 🫣

Teach, Learn, Share

Ummm…. I have a proficient level in videography and photography. Maybe that‘s something I can offer?
Heads up: yes I've studied psychology buuut unfortunately, no, I can’t read your mind 🫶

What I Can Share with Hosts

My energy (some say it doesn’t run out)! Ahah and maybe a kangaroo from the land down under - Australia.

Buuut I can offer some photography, some English/Arabic lessons, a good vibe and I can strike a conversation in almost any area!
