Hello hello World !
About myself, my grandfather was a traveler, and my other grandfather is a gardener ("Boustany" actually means gardener in Arabic). I apparently have taken traits from both of them, a traveler passionate about nature !

I grew up mostly in Lebanon and got the opportunity to leave when I was 18 to go live in France, and boy was that an eye opener...
I've always wanted to travel, and when I got to France I discovered Hitchhiking, and then Couchsurfing, and I loved it ! I was now able to travel without needing a HUGE amount of money to do a tiny bit of destinations. I can now do a HUGE amount of destinations for a tiny bit of money, so thats what I'm doing !

I am pretty clumsy but when I'm being hosted I always try (and am) the most minimalist guest possible. I usually travel with all I need to not bother my host (sleeping bag, towel, soap, clean clothes, heck even a sleeping matress !). I really like cooking but am not that good at it, which means I would love for us to cook together so I could learn some secret recipes from all around the world :)

And anyway, apart from all of this, I enjoy new experiences and getting to discover different peoples lives and learn (and share) as much as I can. I believe every human has a nice part somewhere deep down and always try to look for it (even when it is not obvious lol, some friends of mine disagree with me).

CURRENT MISSION
I have left Paris in June and am hitchhiking and Couchsurfing across Europe to move back to Lebanon !
I decided to leave Paris and go determine how I could help my home country of Lebanon for its better future (and ecology-wise). I will move back to my grandfathers farm and at the same time determine the needs of the country and how I could help its agricultural or Energetic sectors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Multiple reasons, the first of which being that couchsurfing combined to hitchhiking is a very economical way of travelling. This allows me to travel further and more often than without it !
And of course it comes with the bonus of making a friend and having a good time with someone on solo-trips !
I love it, CS is the besttt :)

I also love to help others when I can, but unfortunately I have still been unable to host due to roomate situations...

Interests

Nature Nature Nature !!! I love being out in nature, hiking, gardening, chilling in nature, waterfall, lakes, campfires, etc etc...
So if you live in Nature we can go out hiking or if you have a Garden I can help out !

What I Can Share with Hosts
