Description
I’m 22 years old, born and raised in the UK but with mixed heritage (half Libyan and half Serbian).
Currently, I am planning my travels throughout this summer. Having graduated from university last year, I am taking some time to explore different parts of the world, and experience different ways of living.
My interests are extremely varied. I am a creative person who loves art, crafting, and music from all over the world. I also love reading and history, I think travelling to different places is so cool as it allows me an insight into the stories of completely different people and communities. I am also adventurous, and enjoy being immersed in nature and taking care of animals.
I feel very connected to my Arab side through music, culture, and food. However, I unfortunately have forgotten much of the Arabic I used to speak, since I have not had the opportunity to visit Libya for many years.
I am excited about travelling throughout North Africa and the Middle East to reconnect with my heritage, and hopefully practice my language while I am there.

Having grown up in a trilingual household, I am lucky to say that languages come naturally to me. I love learning new languages as I think being able to communicate with as many communities as possible is a beautiful thing! I speak English and Serbian fluently, and grew up in an Arabic speaking household - but can only understand it for now. I also learned Spanish at school, but need a bit of brushing up.
