Hello! I am Hasan, 24 years old. I graduated from cinema a couple of years ago and I now work as a cameraman and editor. I love chocolate, timelapses and eating veggie burgers (although I'm not a veggie). I am now also studying philosophy, which I am really enjoying.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from around the world and experience places as locals do.
I would also love to host travellers to Lebanon and have them experience the country differently than what is portrayed in mass media.

Interests

Through studying cinema I developed photography as a hobby on the side. It has now turned into a serious passion. I love taking portraits and playing with light. I also love making short movies, mostly portraits also. My favourite is black and white photography because the focus of the photo becomes the light.
I am a foodie and love trying out new things, especially when travelling.
