Generally, a well mannered person, or so I’ve been told!

I was born and grew up in Beirut, Lebanon.
Studied psychology, medicine, and specialized in psychiatry (no, I don’t psychoanalyze people all the time).

I worked for the international humanitarian organization MSF (Doctors Without Borders) for 4 years. I had missions in Iraq, Liberia, Jordan, Ukraine, Malawi, and Uganda. At the moment, based in Kyiv, Ukraine and working for the International Committee of the Red Cross.

I love a good hike, good coffee, and a nice chat over both. Looking to connect with people with interesting stories.
