My name is Bilal Naamani from Lebanon; I've worked in Beirut, Dubai and Kuwait as a management consultant for 10 years. in 2015 I've quit my job to pursue a different lifestyle, one that is sync with nature. Hence my interest in Permaculture, Yoga, Reiki and other spiritual and holistic disciplines.
I've been traveling, learning and volunteering for the past 3 years; mainly on permaculture and sustainable projects. I've volunteered in Turkey, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia and Cambodia.
I'll spend 2019 traveling in South America; mainly Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Mexico

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The think that makes me proud is taking the decision to leave my corporate job and living in a city and pursuing my dream of living in a community with likeminded people. A community based on equanimity, spirituality, respecting nature and sharing duties responsibilities and whatever nature gives us

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing stories and experiences, talking about history spirituality yoga nature permaculture.
I did yoga and massage therapy courses on my travels so I can share that as well as being a good listener and help with whatever is needed. I think I can be provide a good companion while being hosted. I like sports, going for walks, grabbing a drink and occasionally partying a bit.
