I like trying out new experiences and I can take "small" risks as I am a mom and my daughter needs me to get back to her safe and sound :)

I like reading in psychology, believe in some professional personality quizzes like "Enneagram", I'm type 4, the Individualist.

I enjoy all types of movies except horror and sci fi, all kinds of upbeat/dance music no matter where it's from, the more varied, the better.

I'm a night owl and enjoy musical concerts and parties. But I don't drink so it can be a bit tricky to fit in sometimes.

I prefer forests, mountains, lakes and rivers to beaches or the sea.

I also love shopping in local shops and street markets.

I'm Egyptian but I grew up in Kuwait.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Raising a child alone and acquiring three qualifications in two different fields in the meanwhile while also working full time..

Learning how to crochet overnight from scratch to emotionally deal with hard times..

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn about cultures and traditions I'm not part of. I'm learning Norwegian.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help people improve in English (and Arabic) whatever their current level is (my career). We can continue to chat and exchange knowledge and messages about that after the visit is over. I'm happy to give zumba classes, to groups though..

I was told that I can be good at showing people their own countries from new perspectives..

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, England, Finland, Georgia, Jordan, Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, Turkey, United Arab Emirates
