About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy Ramadan with my American girlfriend in the old medina, Fez.

ABOUT ME

Well, I live my life on my terms and according to my own values. I don't feel like I have to impress anyone with expensive consumer goods or certain behaviors. Pretentious people annoy me and I avoid them.
People tell me I speak my mind, some think this is a positive trait, others think it is a negative trait. I try to keep my word and tell the truth and I wish I was more artistic...Ahh! Sometimes a feeling of sadness overwhelms me and I can't do anything about it!

PHILOSOPHY

Know then thyself, presume not God to scan,
The proper study of mankind is Man.
Placed on this isthmus of a middle state,
A being darkly wise and rudely great:
With too much knowledge for the Sceptic side,
With too much weakness for the Stoic's pride,
He hangs between, in doubt to act or rest;
In doubt to deem himself a God or Beast;
In doubt his mind or body to prefer;
Born but to die, and reas'ning but to err;
Alike in ignorance, his reason such,
Whether he thinks too little or too much;
Chaos of thought and passion, all confused;
Still by himself abused or disabused;
Created half to rise, and half to fall:
Great lord of all things, yet a prey to all;
Sole judge of truth, in endless error hurl'd;
The glory, jest, and riddle of the world!

Alexander Pope.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I’ll help out if I could :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I've had only positive experiences (Thank God). I really enjoy myself showing people around and telling them about the history of the place where I was born! So much pride! :p

P.S: I don't like when CSs think that CS is just about getting a place where to sleep; end of story!

Interests

I love writing down my thoughts, describe how I feel and translate all that into short stories or poems.

  • writing
  • poetry
  • perfumes
  • history

Music, Movies, and Books

A walk to remember, naturally born killers, hulk, looking for forester, the road, the way, the transporter, wonder boy, the conqueror, and quite a long list of movies :)I like to taste from all types of music, from the most quite to the noisiest :)Umn! Books! I've read a considerable number of books. My best favorite ones are : The history of love and seven wives and seven prisons or experiences in the life of a matrimonial manomaniac.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once almost got myself killed falling from a rock.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe the essence of knowledge is that it's to be passed on! All I know should be shared!
