I am Maryem from Morocco, a very open and curious soul who left her country 4 years ago for a journey of self discovery.

I love human and social interactions and enjoy listening to people’s different perspectives about things. I don’t believe in one truth but I believe in a set of variables that leads to a truth. That is why I love to meet different people to learn how to embrace more diversity and understand and empathize with people from different countries and backgrounds.

Learning about new things is my passion. I consider myself a multi potentialist, good enough at many things but not a master In all of them.. I also do film photography, cinema, and study design and communication and here are some of my biggest hobbies:

I am a certified scuba diver and I love anything related to the sea as it fascinates me.

I do ceramic and I recently started learning jewelry design, as you could guess I love working with my hands and I’ve always dreamed of becoming a craftswomen.

I have a rising interest in spiritual psychology and I definitely enjoy analyzing and discussing philosophical topics and human psychology.

I do art to express myself: drawing, painting on glass, body painting and ceramic which has been my favorite personal time activity during the past year.
I also write poetry when I have things to say.
