ABOUT ME

As a junior doctor I have to work a lot indeed, nevertheless I know how to party as well :D

I love traveling, visiting new places, meeting people from my age with whom I discover that we share a common cultural background thanks to globalization. I believe that every person carries a story that would add to my perspective, especially if this person comes from a different culture.

PHILOSOPHY

I would call myself a Humanist. I believe in peace and reason as a solution to pretty much all of our problems as a world. Call it idealistic or unrealistic, but really, wars and intolerance have done nothing but take a toll on millions of lives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to Couchsurfing as a participant. Regarding hosting, well, whenever my friends host anybody, I take them to local bars, traditional Egyptian cafés, museums, or even visit the closest beach for a day. I showed around couchsurfers from Spain, New Zealand, Taiwan, United States and Turkey.

Interests

Cinema, literature, paintings, psychology, philosophy. I am very passionate about knowledge as it teaches years of experience lived by someone else or even a group of people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I bathed in hot springs in Yverdon, Switzerland when it was snowing. Watching the snow evaporating on the surface of the water and the Alpes in the horizon was an amazing experience!

Together with my classmates, we went from Cairo to Suez (80 Km) on foot and we camped on the road.

Teach, Learn, Share

Besides medicine and its related sciences, I enjoy teaching languages. I am grateful to be able to fully master 3 languages and I am willing to teach anyone who wants to learn.

I also want to learn German, Dutch, Italian. If someone can walk me through art history, that would be super interesting as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Time to take you out on the local spots, not the usual touristic attractions, but getting the real experience of this chaotic city that never sleeps.

Interesting conversations about anything you want over drinks or dinner.
