I'm 32 now, and hold a PhD degree in Linguistics. I have always been focused on my education and professional development and therefore the first impression people have of me is that I come across as older than I really am. However, I really don't take myself too seriously anymore :P

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love meeting people from different cultures and having authentic experiences with ordinary people from all walks of life.

兴趣

Having been raised in Palestine, I'm naturally interested in politics and talk about it a lot. I also have a soft spot for poets and poetry. My hobbies include chess, table tennis, cycling, watching movies and series.
