CURRENT MISSION

To become a leading travel writer in Arabic literature

ABOUT ME

I'm 36 years old, full-time IT project manager in some multinational company, and a part-time travel writer (wish I could swap these two), living in downtown. I've traveled to about 15 countries and many cities around the world. Have also traveled a lot inside Egypt, love reading, attending concerts and musicals, walking down the old streets of Cairo.

PHILOSOPHY

Only he who we call "the other" can help us fully understand ourselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a firm believer of the "Pay it forward" concept. I've been much blessed to receive a lot of help in different situations everywhere I went from complete strangers, and so i believe i have to offer help to complete strangers as well in return, it always comes around perfectly ;)

I'm also a passionate biker and own a motorcycle riding school.
