About Me

Well, for a guy who talks for living, I find it really hard to do the "About me" bit, not because I am shy or something, but because how does one, sum themselves up in a few lines? What does really define us, which aspect is more important to tell? I guess I would say I am a very, VERY, social person, dreamer, stubborn and animals lover but I would always pick dogs if I had to. I never traveled in my life but always called myself a traveler. I am finally doing it tho.

I love dancing too much. I salsa a little, Cuban style. I love any form of dance that moves my hips. Dancehall is my best currently

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I mentioned in the "About me" I never traveled and I am a people's person, a very social one. Back home I met hundreds of people, travelers from all over the world, got fascinated by their stories and loved their courage. I honestly most of the times looked at them as they were crazy, trusting strangers with their lives, but somewhere deep inside of me, I know I had to do the same. I finally moved to Spain after having cold feet so many times. This made me closer to the idea of exploring myself through exploring the world. I figured, staying at friends' houses (Who I have almost all over Europe), will not count as a full experience, even hostels, indeed I would meet great people, but I think I want to meet locals, to have the fullest experience possible

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Spain!

I, for reasons I could not discover yet, had fear of travel and moving to a new place. I alwasy felt like there was more to my story, chapters that could only be written in a different place, different culture a completely different world. Moving to Spain was a crazy move, came in a weird timing when I was not doing the best at work, or life in general, I moved with close to NOTHING in my bank account and zero Spanish in me. However, 5 months after, I can say that this was the best thing I have ever done.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you cool phrases in Arabic, or American English. Help you learn or practice your Cubana Salsa (Please lets do that!) ... I would love to learn ANYTHING you can add to my humble knowledge :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversations! Again... I do talk for a living! haha

Well lets see. I am an actual alien born and raised on Earth; I may not know where exactly I am from in Space, so maybe that would not be too much of an interesting topic. However I was born and raised in Saudi Arabia (I knooow, you think it must'a been tough? wait until I tell you about it) I then moved to Sudan, Africa for high school and what follows. I recently live in Spain, Madrid.

I bet you will give me the famous common advice after you hear my story "Dude, you should totally make a movie about your weird life!"
