About Me

Hi CS folks,
I am Bassel.
I am a computer guy, so I work as a programmer, but actually I'm a bit more than of that because I also know networks, IT support, deal with hard computers problems.
I live in Lille almost downtown, and I know Lille very well.
I live all alone calmly, and I'm quite independent.
I am rather serene, a good listener, open-minded, flexible, aware, organized, and an easy-going person, who's easy to get along with, but sometimes I'm moody.
I love hanging out with my friends to grab beers, catching up, staying up, and attending concerts.
I am not a heavy smoker person but I don't mind to have cigarettes with a glass of beer with friends.
I am a down-to-earth, genuine and laid-back person.
I prefer to avoid formalities, and troubles.
I enjoy going to the gym and go to swim, where I have fun and stay active.
I adore nature, animals, mountains and sea.
I often go with my friends for brunch on weekends in a park, of course if the weather allows that, otherwise we meet up in a bar.
If this is the first time for you in Lille and need someone to host you and give you some recommendations don't hesitate to reach out to me.
