About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Self: treat myself, take care of my health, eat well, grow my hair long and stay young, spend quality time running, in suana, with massage and get myself pampered by loved ones
Business: revive Egyptian crafts at risk through export, product innovation and creating new generations of artisans
couch surfing: meet interesting ppl from all over the world and learn about different cultures as Im so fond of culture and oral history

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For both the economical reasons and to get a local experience of my visit...I'm not at all the tourist mentality but rather the adventurous who prefers traveling to nature and countryside rather than to cities...to beaches and mountains rather than shopping malls....who prefers getting lost in local neighborhood and meeting people ...so while in cities, I like to get local insights on local food, hippy clothing, famous hangouts and hidden ones too as well as authentic markets

Music, Movies, and Books

i might be one of the weirdest ppl when I say I never had a play list or any music device..I only listen to music live, in concerts but not anywhere else

as for books and movies....they r countless....I am a big fan of cinema and I love watching movies...all countries but not all genres...I dont like horror, bloody, very sci fi...I like drama, romance, romantic comedy, family, adventure, history and sometime thriller and I love reading novels...good novels...I sometime read books but the topic has to be very interesting to me

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

when I had a down period of my life summer 12 and just got out of it because I was so much loved and supported by my best friends, crazy love and support, unconditional and I felt so blessed and lucky ...i then had the chance of a partially funded business tour for my business and i put it to maximum use...I was hosted by my dear friends from my masters degree in Budapest in Paris, Brussels, Berlin, Prague, Bratislava, Sofia, Blagoevgrad and Toulouse and my heart was cured :-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Im a great story teller :-) I can also share my wisdom, experiences and unique artisanal gifts from all over Egypt :-)
