Person who inspires me the most:

Famous Lebanese artist, poet and writer Gibran Khalil has inspired me and made me think more about life. Every line in his story or every stanza in his poem always gives out a meaningful message.

My perfect weekend:

I enjoy snow boating with my friends at SKI DUBAI and ice skating. Also at times I relax by going for yoga classes.

The countries I hope to visit:

I’m a big fan of museums like the ones in ITALY, FRANCE and SRI LANKA.

The Bollywood movie ‘Mission Kashmir’ has enticed me to visit Kashmir.

My goal in life:

I would like to become a film director and make movies or documentaries on people on the streets and their experiences or struggle in life.

My typical day:

College in the morning, family/friends time in the evening or I end up busy with a lot of projects. For once, I wish to have a normal day where I can just sit home, relax and sleep.

The music I listen to:

I love to listen to Bollywood songs and songs by Fayrouz, Abdel Haleem and Um Kolthoum. My most favorite Hindi song is Bachna Hae Haseeno.

If I could be a character in any movie:

I would play the part of Shahrukh Khan in all his movies.

 

The five things I need for survival

-My Nokia 6230i. I’ve got a lot of memories attached with that phone.

– A box I keep with me… filled with letters from my friends.

– My favorite Iranian sweet ‘Faloudah’.

– Water

– A book of names and their meanings. (Since I like to travel and to meet people, this would be my conversation starter)
