关于我
***COVID information:
If you would like to meet up or stay at my place, I ask that you get a covid test done in the last week before meeting. I get tested weekly because of my work but I would like to be extra cautious for the people around me that I see regularly. Thanks for understanding.***
Just a girl from Lebanon who wants to see more of the world and wants to experience new adventures.
Currently a research engineer at MIT, working in Neuro-engineering to understand the brain and humans and build cool things.
My philosophy:
Be as humble as you can cause the truth is the world is a lot more random than we think it is and there is so much out there that we don’t even know we don’t know. Understand that the world is diverse, that people’s experiences shape their opinions passions and missions and that no two people on earth share the same story, so no two people on earth can share the exact same values and goals.
Understand that love and kindness are the only things that will make our world better.
*** Other helpful information:
Please do not request to couchsurf for a trip thats 5 months down the line. First, covid travel restrictions are changing every week and as of right now, no one outside the US can enter if they’re not residents. Second, I might not be in the country 5 months in, so only request at most 3 weeks ahead of your trip.
我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
I need an escape from the world sometimes and I want to meet new people from all over. Have been living a quiet life for some time and I wanted to change that and my favorite thing to do is listen to people’s stories and cultures from all over the world.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情
I volunteered at a hospital in Guatemala to help fix medical equipment 2 summers ago. I ended up fixing one of their oxygen pumps with a piece of rubber from an old motorcycle using a laundry ironing machine
教,学,和分享
I’m really interested in exchanging ideas and views of the world, and I think this is the best thing I have to offer. I like to think about how things work in the world, how everything interacts and I love to see how people look at things around them. I have gone through many really hard experiences that have nonetheless thought me to love life and how lucky we are in a lot of ways, and I would love to share this love with others.
I can probably help with any of the languages I speak and some guitar. I need help with my Spanish and Swedish.
Would love to show you around Cambridge/Boston, although I’ve only moved here in July 2021 so I’m not a perfect local yet! But I am down to discover more of the city together!
I’d also be more helpful in Beirut or Paris if you’re there!!
我可以与沙发主分享些什么
I’m an okay cook but can make some good dishes, would mostly drive you on spontaneous adventures wherever we are and I’m always down for whatever you may have in mind. I have a thing for really late night or early morning walks when everyone is asleep.
