Caffeine ☕️, Protein 🥩, and Capsaicin 🌶️ addicted.
I am always out of my comfort zone. Challenge enthusiast and off road chaser. So being journalist sounds making sense especially as I was born in Lebanon 🇱🇧 the country of cedars and 1 million sect and political party. I moved to Qatar to work and I live there since 2011. I hold MA in Media and cultural studies and I am giving training courses in journalism and broadcast/digital media.
Meanwhile I try to travel backpacking 2 or 3 times each year to discover the planet 🌍 and of course there is always a trip to Istanbul the capital of the world and my sweet home. So my tongue gets overwhelmed with speaking 3 languages in the same time Arabic ض , Turkish 🇹🇷 and English 🇬🇧.
Beside news storytelling and media training, I have huge interest in fitness and nutrition especially in weightlifting and powerlifting 🏋🏻‍♂️. I have also participated in may races. I am a Spartan Race finisher 🐺 and half marathon x2 🏃🏻‍♂️.
If you missed me check out the gyms around and you will find me lifting some “light weight baby” or in the kitchen cooking delicious food 🥘 or making specialty coffee V60 and Aeropress.
On the other side, you can recognize me easily as I keep my Kindle with me all the time loaded with dozens of interesting titles to read and learn 📚.
As living one life is not enough for me, I look to live more by reading books 📙 and stories, listening to podcasts 🎧and traveling 🎒around the world hunting stories from local communities and people.
Currently Doha is my home and till the next move I Welcome you in Qatar 🇶🇦 .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The globe is small and technology makes it more smaller. As we came from the same origin and going to the same destiny we have lot of time to meet each other, socializing and sharing our stories. Who knows how many of us are so similar. Welcome to the Homo Sapien world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ok here is about the personal taste which is changing from decade to other and from generation to other. So nowadays I am in love with Docudrama and non fiction books especially in history, politics, philosophy, psychology, biography and self development. And of course fitness and nutrition. Regarding the music it depends where I am. If at the gym, so give me the most motivation tracks. Or at home, I want the most relaxing ones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
