About Me

A person who simply tries to feed her soul with knowledge, beautiful encounters, unique experiences and life!
I am working on becoming and essentialist by trying to fill my day with the essential things, tasks, activities, people and experiences that matter to me, in order to become the best version of myself.
I am socially conscious, environmentally-friendly and surely have a sense of global community.

I am 25 years old and recently got accepted at Lesley University for the Art Therapy Master's degree program in Boston. I could not find a better vocation to go with my personality as I love combining the two worlds of Art and Therapy and I think that they both complete each other in many ways.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting people from different countries, guiding them in my country and learning from them about theirs.

I haven't had any couch surfing experiences yet on a personal level, but I have met people who have hosted and have been hosted by other couchsurfers.

I am planning to come to Boston in May and would like to meet people in Boston. I would like some guidance there.

Interests

Asking myself and others “How can I serve?” in each situation.
Learning, being in nature, arts, yoga, meditation, music, reading, discussions about different topics.
I played the Djembe with a drum circle in Lebanon and would like to continue to do so.
I also like talking about literature, philosophy, countries, experiences and creativity.

Philosophies: *“Do not be a magician - be magic!”* ~ Leonard Cohen, Beautiful Losers

*"There’s No WiFi in the Forest, but You’ll Get a Stronger Connection"* ~Jess Stuart

*"The whole idea behind developmental change is that things can never be settled once and for all. Life is a thriller all right, but not one we can solve with the right set of clues, nor a puzzle with one correct fit."* ~ Gail Sheehy in Passages Book
