I'm Lebanese and Canadian, lived in 4 countries in 3 continents and I visited about 20 others. I studied Marine Biology and Environmental Science.

Currently working remotely for the UN as a Biosafety Consultant. Hence, the desire to travel and work remotely from anywhere.

I'm new to this app but I've done plenty of couch surfing, especially during the 2 years during which I was homeless.

I'd rather keep the rest for F2F conversations, don't want to beat the point of this app :)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

- I am a cocktail of cultures and I plan to add more ingredients to the mix.

- Never really set anchor in one place, always been either an 'expat', 'immigrant' or 'foreigner' (even in my own country). So I am giving this a try to meet others who may be in similar shoes or anchored somewhere.

- I travel a lot, I'm a minimalist and I'm more interested in the exchange of knowledge/thoughts/emotions/energies than the exchange of money*.

*Unless we're contributing to each other's foreign currency collections :D

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

- I'd like to believe I'm a good cook and I've worked in a restaurant for a year so I can be a good helping hand in the kitchen.

- I'm physically fit so I can help out with chores.

- I've worked on boats, trucks, warehouses, retail, labs, farms and offices so I'd be glad to assist with any type of work.
