CURRENT MISSION meeting new people from different background ABOUT ME I'm a simple person, I like to travel so much and communicate with people from different backgrounds. I started working as a Sports Journalist when I was 16 years old, before finishing my high school and still so far working as I was dreaming. My biggest dream was to visit my homeland "Palestine", now I make it come true, I went to my homeland for the first time in my life, and I hope I can go more in the future. PHILOSOPHY Live for Love We are here for a good time not for a long time. I'm not planning to live my life. I AM LIVING MY LIFE.
