Recently relocated back Riyadh after 8 years away, I feel like a complete stranger in this “new” Saudi Arabia!

I want to explore the world whilst exploring myself at the same time...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying in a hotel is fun, but it does not guarantee that you meet the right friendly locals.

Interests

Languages, food, wine, soccer, dogs, and cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all sorts of music, listening to a genre or two is boring. My Spotify playlist has songs from all around the world and in all sorts of languages. However, I'm crazy about Manu Chao and I wish to attend one of his concerts so bad! Other names that are not so “pop culture" that I love include: Yasmine Hamdan, Emel Methlothui, Dalida, Lara Fabian, mashrou Laila, Balti, etc.
