About Me

a citizen of this big blue beautiful planet born in Egypt and planning on exploring every part of land and sea in this world and outside of it if it 's possible in the future, lover of all created by nature :)

leaving my romantic side a bit for now, i have an engineering background but since graduating been trying to explore other fields, from teaching robotics and renewable energy to 8 years old, to cofounding a company working in 3D printing (http://www.etba3ly3d.com/).

2017/2018 is just about traveling around Asia and venturing into the unknown to test those limits of mine:)

Some rules i live by:

-Change is the only constant
-carpe diem

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

meeting new people and hearing their stories is something that helps us grow like no other and i guess being on CS is something that's gonna help me do that.

One thing that i found out is that the best way to explore the place you're traveling to is to see it through the eyes of your host, what's really amazing in this community is that almost all of the hosts share this virtue of wanting to tell u how they are experiencing the place they live in and i love that :)
