About Me

Hey. My name is Feras and I'm from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Studied finance and philosophy at University for my bachelor's. I'm married but have no kids... yet. Like many others, I love to travel and consider it the best teacher in itself. After every trip, I start thinking about the next.

Other than that, I work at a board game distribution company, so would definitely enjoy getting to know anyone over a strategic game of any kind.

Looking forward to getting to know you and thank all the hosts for letting me stay over.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget my honeymoon, where my wife and I decided to give back rather than spend it on the typical hotel stay - by volunteering for Habitat For Humanity and build a small house for a family in Nepal for two weeks. The funny part of this was that my wife and I wouldn't really see each other for most of the day, since there was a rule that pairs staying in one room are assigned to different teams so that we all mingle and get to know one another. We would see each other during meals, on the bus, and in the evenings at least :) there's much more to the story, but I guess I can claim that not many can say similar about their honeymoon.

Teach, Learn, Share

A quote I stick to: "Everyone is awesome until proven otherwise."

What I Can Share with Hosts

Perhaps, a perplexing philosophical conversation (which is how I first met my wife, so I should've done something right)?
Or a lesson in juggling?
I really hope to be an unintrusive guest and will gladly help with the dishes :)
I can also cook a really good breakfast with eggs.
