A management consultant in the mornings, and cultural activists in the evenings and weekends :)

Since 2012, I've co-established and lead 2 youth-led initiatives serving culture and the creative economy in Yemen. I'm a member of several prestigious international youth leadership networks affecting positive change in people's lives.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

There is an old Yemeni saying: "have a friend in every village", that's the vision I'm trying to accomplish! :)

Музыка, кино и книги

Old Arabic songs and poetry songs by Abdulrahman Mohammed & Alfarabi band. Rumi's sayings, writings and poetry simply fascinate me; that's why I always listen to his and others' spiritual poetry and songs O:)

Strangely enough, I also love hip-hop music! I've been listening to Eminem since ever, as I love many other rappers, American, British and Arab.

I've been a movie fan since I was a 5th grader! Genres I enjoy the most are: action, adventure, horror and comedy movies.

Not really a book fan, but I'm trying :P
