CURRENT MISSION

To Live The Life

ABOUT ME

I like... cozy.

I used to live in different places. Grew up in Libya, Jordan and Iraq, long times in Russia. Now blending in the US... Then? Maybe China? Or India? Or Nepal? Brazil? Alaska! :)

The thing I hate is to bind yourself to one place forever. I'm homeless, and I want to stay homeless.

"Where are you from" - "Planet Earth".

I love warm nights, when you can lie in a hammock with a waterpipe loaded with the mix of rose and grapes. Or maybe on a roof of a building in Mumbai with my friend Sanu? Or in 'The Spider House' in Austin, with my laptop, reading through CS, Slashdot, ...? This stuff really makes you feel peace and ... cozy :)

PHILOSOPHY

Nobody owes you shit. And be cool :)

There should be two of you. One watching and one participating. This way it's more fun and less trouble.

Whenever deciding, clear your mind from all you've know and start void. Only this way your decision will be right.

'My Backpack Is My Home'... and my laptop is a part of my Backpack. Even though I don't travel as much as some do. And I don't hike :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not a lot ATM, not much chance to do that :(

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's just... you know, you come somewhere, you don't know the place, you wander around on your own, and then you meet that guy (or girl.. or guys and gals :) ), and the moment he (they) starts talking to you you feel like you know him (them) all your life, and you know this place for a looooooong time. That's my CouchSurfing Experience :)

Intereses

Computers and computers and computers.

Urban extreme.

Flying airplanes. Little ones. :)

Snowboarding. Freeride. :)

Movies. Music. Good movies and good music.

And various other weird stuff (freelines for example). Oh, and flying airplanes.

Hookahs (waterpipes).

I also love to meet, talk and learn (and talk).

Just doing cool stuff.. As one of my buddies says, 'it's just cool to do stuff just for the sake of doing stuff...'
