Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to very different types of music, from Rock to triphop, funk, house, indie, and other ethnical stuff. I played djembe for few years, now I am learning the guitar.
I don't have a specific genre in books and won't write a list of all the books I've read (definitely I would prefer anything non-fiction though), but a small book I read a long time ago stayed in my mind forever and it's called "who moved my cheese". Really a very sweet very small easy reading book that can practically help us in our life, and not just add information to our mind.
I can't into the film world, all I can say is that I studied film, worked in many films and can't have a specific genre since I am a filmmaker, we don't look at movies this way, we just appreciate anything well done ( ok maybe and just mayyyyyyybe I prefer documentaries a little bit more)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pretty much lived a crazy crazy life and came out of it a survivor and a warrior.
One cool thing I've done is I lived in an Ashram in India for about a year and a half. And I teach classical Hata yoga.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you live around and we have time, I can teach French, Arabic, Yoga, how to do dreamcatchers and how to carve in avocado seeds and dry them :) also how to make few dishes and hummus.
I would wanna learn how to play another instrument, natural building, how to make a hammock, how to make a proper CV :D how to cook something nice

What I Can Share with Hosts

It depends if I am home, as I said before I travel around a lot, mostly for work. So whenever I am around I sometimes can host guests if I am not hosting a friend :) unfortunately spend a lot of time and show around because I currently have a full-time job :(

Countries I’ve Visited

Cyprus, France, India, Libya, Switzerland, Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey

Countries I’ve Lived In

India, Lebanon, Turkey
