About Me

ABOUT ME

One male, interested in art, design, film, music, travel, fashion, coffee, foreign beers, food, trains.

I grew up all over the place, mainly between Lebanon, Ireland and the UK. Currently living and studying in London.

I hate travelling with groups, and prefer exploring cities alone, at my own pace, wandering around and discovering quirky things that tourists never see, and never get to experience.

I like sitting in coffee shops in different cities and watch locals do their thing...creepy yes, but who cares.

I like seeing museums, interesting architecture, visiting flee markets and general street life.

I also like to drink :)
