About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, cultures, and countries

ABOUT ME

I cant host at the moment (hopefully I'll be able to soon!) but I am always ready to meet up with fellow travelers to share experiences. If I have time, I could even show you around. Feel free to contact me :)

I graduated from the American University of Beirut with a Bachelors of Computer and Communication engineering, but that doesn't stop me from pursuing my interests in political science, history, philosophy and sociology. I am fascinated by Neuroengineering, and I hope to add to human knowledge about the our fascinating brains, but I currently work as a translator since I have a profound interest in languages too.

I love meeting people from all around the world and I am a very social person, and I can easily break the ice with people I don't know.

Avid reader.

PHILOSOPHY

There is a transcendent unity that radiates from everything, you just need to open your eyes.

The world is beautiful in all it's colors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed a few times in India, which helped me get to meet more locals. I also couchsurfed in Turkey, and I met a lot of people through CS in Beirut and Venezuela.

So far, my couchsurfing experience with Adil Khan in Agra was the best, it was nice listening to his insights on life.

Interests

Reading, writing, having fruitful and enriching discussions (in philosophy, politics, sociology, science... ), exploring new places, learning new languages, programming, swimming
