About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find what's life worth living for ..

ABOUT ME

I'm a very random person, very spontaneous and up for absolutely anything.

Umm , well I dont really know how people I know would describe me in a serious manner , that's cause all I try to do is to make people laugh and then .. make them laugh again , I mean what's life worth living for if using your lips to smile is harder than using your eye brows to frown ..?!

life as I know is all about spirit , I am a spiritual person , it doesn't mean I'm religious nor does it mean I'm non-religious , I do believe in the super power that watches all over us , I've never met it , and may never do , but I do know and feel the spirit in me , and I feel how it connects all of us together , as human beings , and so I appreciate this spirit and I appreciate you :)

Other things to tell , I have a B.A in English Literature from Damascus University ..

I'm a good driver , very good one actually , I had a dream to be racing in F1, but not all dreams are meant to come true.

MUSIC
I love music just like anyone else , it is everything , I can actually spend the day without eating , but there wouldn't be a day that passes without music , it's what feeds my spirit ..
what I care most about music is lyrics then music genre ..

I am an outgoing person , open minded, very friendly and widely understanding.
I love meeting new people and that's what I try to do every single day , new people = new experiences = new things to learn = ups and downs = enriching my human experience ..

PHILOSOPHY

Spirituality ..

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” "
Augustine of Hippo.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have studied at Damascus University / English Literature department , and across the street we have The Higher Institute For Teaching Languages , and that is one of the most attended languages institutes for learning Arabic in the middle east , students from all over the world come to it all the time to study Arabic , and so we meet with foreign students all the time and we arrange cultural exchanging meetings in order to get to know each other , the cultures , the languages , the countries , the traditions , theexperiences and the spirit of each other , which brings joy and excitement to all participants :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well , some of my recent Cultural exchanging friends told me about couchsurfing and how useful it could be for both me and the people I might be hosting in the future for that we can meet here first , get details about each other and be ready to meet :)
