CURRENT MISSION

i have visited many places in the Middle East and Europe and now would like to venture into South and Central America and many places in Europe I haven't been to yet.

ABOUT ME

Spontaneous, quite laid back but energetic at the same time. Always have good time. Love meeting new people and making new friends.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is to be kind, even to people you may not understand or agree with. Kindness goes along way, and the positive energy you give to the world will return to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None really-it kind of felt like couch surfing when I stayed on a permaculture farm in Palestine--it was a great experience getting to know many local guys who hung out there. I'm excited to meet new local people in some exciting places.

Interests

Run, read, travel, politics, volunteering with healthcare missions. Have been living and travelling in Middle East so have enjoyed learning to speak, read and write Arabic.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ellie Goulding, Ed Sheeran, Alternative music, ENYA, and Arabic music is growing on me--I actually have many songs on my playlist;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitch-hiked and hiked on foot into the Israeli desert when I was visiting Palestine and found a 6000 year old monastery--the landscape was breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope to exchange practicing Arabic with someone who would like to improve their English. I also would love to learn about politics of areas I visit so love to have stimulating conversations.
