I'm a Sufi-Muslim, graduated with a Bachelors in Arabic and a Masters of Religion. I appreciate any chance I get in this world for a little adventure. I'm an artist, a musician, a seeker of knowledge, a lover of laughter and a maker of lemonade from the lemons of life. My favorite part of meeting new people is learning something new about life and myself. I think we are all teachers and students of one another, and the older I get the more it's clear to me that the only things that really matter in this life are our human connections, which is why I’m on CS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven’t sky dived (dove?) or ridden an elephant, or a camel (even though I’ve been to Morocco and got my customary pic with camel) but I’m proud of the person I am today and how far I’ve come. I’m always striving to become a wiser, kinder, stronger person.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I’ve learned so far in my short stint in this life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation. I love to have coffee, walk and chat with people to learn from their unique perspective and way of life. The best things in life are free. If you play music we can sing and play guitar together.
