**Nowadays Special: Homemade Kombucha**

Barely out of the jungle.. just like you. Constantly exploring the potential of a new self.. and like Herman Melville said: "I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas, and land on barbarous coasts."

Motto: be kind, love thyself, it takes generosity to accept generosity, and education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self confidence..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience and share the human condition with fellow earthlings.. I am on the lookout for the misfits, the rebels, the crazy ones and those who are comfortable being uncomfortable.. the ones who dance to the music the masses can't hear.

And to laugh at how over used terms such as "open minded" are over here.. just don't be close minded in your open mindedness, and be careful that your brains don't fall out.. ha!

HOSTING:
I can host 2 people MAX, for short periods only (1-3 days MAX). If you acknowledge that you have read the previous line in your request, and if I have the capacity, I might consider exceptions. If you stay with me, I will share my life with you during your visit- that simple. If we agreed on me hosting you, you will receive lengthy messages, lots of initial details and possibly a lot of questions.. I kinda prefer to assume your ignorance at this stage simply in an attempt to minimize logistical obstacles, specially if it is your first time in Dubai.

MEET UPS:
Preference is to meet and connect with one or two awesome beings at the time.. I am not always fond of meeting big groups of people..

SURFING:
I shall let you know in my personalized message to you. You might happen to live in a place I want to visit, but most likely you will be the reason I want to surf for it is people who make the place special..
