CURRENT MISSION

Just moved to back to my hometown Paris after 15 years abroad.

ABOUT ME

Born and bred in Paris from Egyptian parents, I have had many opportunities to travel for study, work and pleasure. I enjoy discovering places with locals, especially when I can offer help in exchange.

PHILOSOPHY

Listen and speak only to benefit others (at least I try :))
