Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Be realistic: demand the impossible :)
ABOUT ME
I am an open-minded person, always willing to learn from others. I love to meet people from different cultures and spend nice time together.
PHILOSOPHY
You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am currently living in Barcelona after spending 2 years in my lovely Istanbul. I would be pleased to help anyone interested in visiting Barcelona, from sightseeing to eating tapas and flamenco ;) I cannot host anyone but I I have time to show you around. Please, no dating.

I do not have any experience with Couchsurfing but I have a wide experience showing the city I lived (Istanbul & Barcelona) to my friends from around the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love good cinema, the script and directors are very important :) I love movies such as Match Point, Un chien Andalou, Casablanca... Now I am trying to find Egyptian, Lebanese and Irani movies with English subtitles :) (I loved The Yacoubian Building and Western Beirut)
I like to read all kind of books and discover new authors. Now I'm reading Amin Maalouf and Orhan Pamuk books. Any suggestion? :)
I like all kind of music depending on the moment: dance, chill out, bossa nova, jazz, flamenco, Fairuz...
I am always opened to watch, read and listen new things :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
After finishing my studies of law and economics I decided to go away from home in order to learn from life, not just from books. I spent 3 months in Lebanon doing an internship without knowing anyone there and then 2 years in Turkey. What's next? :) Maybe Gulf countries...
Still travelling... and learning :)
