About Me

Searching for adventure,
I love to explore and try things I have never experienced before ...

I'm an outgoing easy person with no prejudices ...
Very interested in life and quite curious about it 😎

I am a Software Developer, and a freelance English to Arabic translator ...
And I have recently obtained a M.Sc. degree from the University of Nottingham ...
I like to research anything and everything, so mostly I know something about everything as per some of my friends who call me Human Google 😝

But don't worry! I'm not geek or weird,
My friends find me so much fun, crazy, resourceful, and sometimes "Wise"! 😁

Nevertheless, I don't feel comfortable around people who do not seem outgoing, welcoming, or smiley, or around those who have prejudiced, racist, or offensive attitude ...
I totally do not prefer their company 😑

Only kind, welcoming, positive, non-hating people ...
Who love ANIMALS! 💝💟

I am a proud TERRIBLE cook,
but I will never quit, I will die trying :D
because I love food and I love to try ethnic dishes!

I'm usually quite a clean, considerate, and sympathetic person 😁
And I would be so much interested in anything we can do together,
hitchhiking, historical information, site seeing, diving, or even card games , and telling stories 😜
even if you just wanted to talk, I am a very good listener ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the world but I am quite broke 😑

Interests

I'm interested in everything new to me or things I have never did or tried before, and in anything I never knew about ...

But I mainly love:
Car racing, provided that I am the driver! LoL 😜
Not fan of watching others do the fun stuff 😒

Photography ...

New Sci-Fi or Fantasy movies with great CGI
New action thrilling "Excellently" executed movies!
Movies with new ideas or values well-presented ..
Horror movies, provided they contain no gore, blood, or disgusting scenes, this is not horror this is eww!

Crime and mystery novels well-written and structured,
With no FREAKIN' open ending!

Shopping, when I have the money to spend ...

Spending time with children who are curious and talkative, I go along very well with them 😁
Making conversations with them is a magical experience and quite informative, you can learn a lot from them, they see things differently!

Spending time with my friends and my cat 💟

Helping others, as long as it will not require excessive physical efforts 😒
So, do not ask me to help you move the furniture!

Problem Solving, if there is any problematic situation, I am the right person to call! 😎

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: not really! Not all the time, depends on the mood,
and just certain classical songs ...

Books: many many novels

Movies: that is quite a topic for me, I love movies ..

Most of Vincent Price movies, Laurel and Hardy, Norman Wisdom, Bud Abbott & Lou Costello, Antony Hopkins, Audrey Hepburn, Steve Martin, Jackie Chan and most of Alfred Hitchcock movies ...

Lord of the rings .. Not The Hobbit though 😑

Harry Potter ... Mostly the sequels where they were all kids, before shoving-in the love stories and killing Dumbledore .. Ugh!

Haven't experienced any excitement in my life yet! 😜
Thought, maybe, the closest thing is obtaining my M.Sc. degree ...
