About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Trust and to be Trusted

ABOUT ME

I am the youngest of three boys and definitely favored by my mom. I love playing sports,reading, going to the beach, going out and just having fun. People usually describe me as laid back and goofy which is true. I am all about new cultural experiences and I have found CS an awesome way to share cultures and a beer.

PHILOSOPHY

Being half black and half Lubanese, stereotyping has been an all toooo familiar occurance. So I wanted to surround myself with others that were open and trustworthy. You always hear *Dont talk to strangers* or *if someone is different, they are weird*. So I wanted to experience something different and talk to strangers in order to understand and not alienate human beings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Up to now, I have done nothing to expand the project but I will look for events in my area once I go back to the US.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed in Bilbao and San Sebastian with some really amazing people. These were my first CS experiences and I had a blast. In Bilbao, they showed me around the area, grabbed some drinks and really got to know the two girls I stayed with. In San Sebastian, loic had two other couch surfers with me and a friend, so we made dinner and talked the whole night pretty much. I am now actively searching for more experiences like this.

Interests

I like hiking, reading, hanging by the beach, drinking beer and wine, going out with friends, love playing soccer, basketball, tennis. I am really competitive and love challenges.
