Hi 🌝

I study social work in Berlin, sometimes live in Zahlé (Lebanon) and like doing things.

I love hiking, especially through forests and along water, climbing, being outside and exploring.

I love watching the night sky and learning about the stars and planets we can see. It just feels so deeply human, something people have always done no matter where they lived. Actually stuff like prehistoric history is so interesting to me that I almost studied it at uni. Maybe one day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I disagree with the concept of countries/borders and think more in terms of people, the value of their culture and history and the nature that surrounds them. This is why I love to (often spontaneously) meet and get to know anyone and what makes them individual and their thoughts about life and the world.

We don't have to be like-minded to get along and actually I love seeing the world from another's perspective and even questioning my own beliefs, although if you are racist or discriminate against anyone based on gender or sexual preference, please stay away from me until you are willing to learn.

Interests

I've been climbing for a couple of years and always enjoy going bouldering or rope climbing with beginners to make it easier for them to pick up skills as well as climbing with experienced people who aren't focused on grades and achievements. For me, climbing is a bit more spiritual, as in: it's about me and my connection to my body and my mental health and not about rating performance or competing.

Although I love challenging each other in good spirit :D

I did a six month internship in Lebanon with a rock climbing project and can talk about this all day long.
