Overview
About Me
I've spent my entire life traveling and hope to continue discovering new places!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's great meeting new people, especially when visiting a new place. I find having a local to show you around or simply make recommendations always results in a great trip!
Interests
I come from an artistic background and studied graphic design in university. I am working on using my skills to create a clothing company with arabic sayings and interesting typefaces. I also work as a freelance graphic and part time as an assistant to a personal shopper which has lead to a great interest in fashion. I love photography and fashion photography though I am often the model not the photographer (a lot of my friends are photographers). Since I was a kid I've loved Reptiles and amphibians, I think they are gorgeous creatures, and I have a pet gecko!

Music, Movies, and Books
I mostly enjoy listening to soul/funk/rock and roll, the good old stuff! I do however appreciate most music, and a love a throwback. Otherwise I have a playlist of arabic music that I love especially because it helps me keep in touch with my heritage.
I am a huge movie and TV show buff and to list would be impossible! so maybe we save that for a conversation in person!
Books wise, I love Gabriel Garcia Marques and can easily get lost in fantasy. Though as Ive been to university more of the books I buy are design related.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good conversation, my personal experiences and knowledge of the world around me and a meal.
