A socially awkward ambivert, sometimes too shy, sometimes too wild and untamed 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love animals the most but people are okay too... occasionally.

Learning languages and getting to know new cultures is a passion of mine.
I would describe myself as a very caring, and open-minded person.

I'm a tea junkie but coffee is also cool.
Feel free to check out my Instagram account if you want to make sure I'm a real person 😉 @talaharakee

If I ever host/meet you or ask to be hosted by you, please know that you will be acquainted with a very chill person. I will make sure to provide a safe and friendly ambiance so that you can feel free to share your thoughts, ideas and opinions with me and I sure hope I receive the same energy from you.

PS: DON'T reach out if you intend to use Couchsurfing as a dating app. You do you folks, zero judgments here but I'm just NOT interested. Thank you for respecting this! 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking for a safe space to meet new people, have fun and experience travelling in a different perspective.
On my few but quite adventurous trips I've encountered some amazing souls, I hope I keep meeting awesome people from around the Globe.

Interests

I'm into languages and translation; that's why I chose to pursue my studies in this field. I love music as it makes life so much more pleasant. I adore animals, especially cats, and I have 4 lovely kitties.

Obviously, I love to travel. It's one of the best things you can offer yourself. Unfortunately I haven't had many chances yet to travel as frequently as I would have wanted to (due to job, money shortage/priorities and you know... life) but I hope I'll be able to travel more and more in the near future!

Music, Movies, and Books

Open to all kinds of music!

I like thrillers but also any well-made movie. Documentaries are cool too, I enjoy a good nature/history one.

I like novels. My academic background required me to read some Italian literature, so I did. I enjoy literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Surviving 2 wars?! Does it count? 😂
Volunteering? Doing charity? Rescuing some stay cats? Bungee-jumping, maybe? Is that impressive enough?
If not, I've been pissed on (oh, excuse my language) by a lion when I was 11!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a few words in Lebanese Arabic, a bit about my country, culture and background.

I'm open to learn absolutely anything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A quirky personality and lots of chats... I'm clean, tidy and trustworthy. I would never leave the space you offer me dirty or messy! You can count on that!!
I'm willing to help you with house chores or petsitting.
Souvenirs from my country are a bonus!
If I find all the ingredients, I can make you a Lebanese dish🤷🏽‍♀️
