I’m a Palestinian who is living in Belgium since about 4 years, I work with organisations and schools doing projects around education and welfare. I’m really passionate about my job but also about many other things, like sports (fitness and biking), a healthy lifestyle, good food, nature, history, meeting new people… and spontaneous trips! When I see a good opportunity to travel (like a cheap flight to a place I haven’t been to before or a good concert that I want to attend) I will most likely take it!
I love to have good and honest chats and discussions with the people I meet, about any topic.

Philosophy

I value respectful interactions with people in the real life (not on social media) more than anything else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use it to meet new people via Hangouts or when traveling, I want to discover new things and have good conversations and a good time with people from everywhere.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I love meaningful music - I feel that most of today’s music is sadly just basic and repetitive.. but prove me wrong! One artist I really like is Marcel Khalifa.

Films: I do like seeing movies about psychology or biography and not really into commercial films!

Books: Lately I haven’t really been reading, but I’d love to get back to it! One book I’d recommend is (the subtle art of not giving a f*ck)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got a work opportunity as a social worker in Belgium when I still had very basic knowledge of the language.. now I’m fluent in Dutch (and love my work)!
Also a lot of spontaneous solo trips :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: cooking Palestinian dishes , Arabic and Dutch words, anything I know about a healthy lifestyle, how to be sarcastic

I want to learn: Italian or Spanish, about anything you’re up to share with me

I can share: my favourite songs, Palestinian food, good vibes, wholesome stories about my work

I can be wise most of the time and NOT judgemental ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Long conversations about a variety of topics, good laughs, I can cook good food for you and show you even better music, …
