CURRENT MISSION

Learning West Coast Swing, Salsa and Spanish.

ABOUT ME

Originally from Syria “half Egyptian”, lived in Dubai for about 12 years, been in the states since 2014, applied and got approved for asylum and applying for a green card now.

I like dancing, I normally go dancing 3-4 times a week, I do Cuban salsa, west coast swing, and fusion.

I am hopefully changing my name legally to Ait Apsea once I got my green card, or maybe after getting citizenship, I was born a Muslim “I’m an atheist now” with a Muslim name “Ahmad Eyad Jandali”, I was thinking “Oliver” for a minute, but then I thought I should chose a name that matches my current status and believes, so i invented this name that points at many things that are important to me.

Been in SF for few years, I love the weather and the everything is practically a walking/biking distance.

I think I’m an idealist, I keep thinking of how would the world look like if we didn’t have borders and wars.

I live in an alternative reality, one that very few share, one that the Matrix movie can be used as a very good metaphor to describe, to most humans, I am schizophrenic, to me, I am being tortured with the same weapons that were used on the American diplomats in the “Havana Syndrome”, and the doctors who think I’m schizophrenic are manipulated to think that schizophrenia is a real illness and not a manipulated symptoms created with those same weapons.
I actually have a website where I put most of the very basics of my research results: www.Freedom4a.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Making new friends and meeting new people from all around the world, so vast yet so small.
Learning all the different things that makes different cultures so different yet very similar.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: the infinity saga, the matrix.
Music: A little of everything, chill outs to melodic death metal, mostly into alternative rock, Muse is one of favourite bands.
Books: I am not a big reader, I liked “on aggression - Konrad Lorenz” when I took a dog behaviourist course once.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was the first human to learn how to pronounce the letter ‘A’

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is a never ending lesson.

The letter ‘A’ sounds like the number ‘8’ without the sound of the letter ‘T’, and the number ‘8’ sounds like the letter ‘H’ without the sound of the two letters “SH”, while the letter ‘H’ is the 8th letter in the alphabet, which I think is a funny random coincidence, at all 🙈
