The journey. Part I






First stop in the US : Washington DC.
Impressions ? It's was unbelievably beautiful, busy, the hustle and bustle, the smell of bureaucracy was reaching out to people in the streets, on the subways, in restaurants and even lost kids like us in  GW University park. 
It's late, I know. They are pretty much shitty and repetitive photographs...I know. But the memories of these days will always remain (Metallica ?). I met so many amazing people. We got to know each other and bond in a very short period of time. Eventually, each one of us ended up in a different place (state) and we got separated.
Starting with my Tunisian partners in crime : Salma, Heni, Wassim. My Jordanian Abdullah, and the Palestinian beauties that am so thrilled to have in my life, Nadia and Raghad. Without forgetting all of the amazing Egyptian, Lebanese and the various nationalities that I got the chance to meet and know more about. That was a heck of a week, people ! 
See you all very very soon, and wish you all the best for this journey. 




While I was submitting these photos, I kept looking through the window and bloody hell ! The rain haven't stopped since the very early morning. It's such an unpleasant weather in Laramie. 
Yes, I said Laramie !
Now I am in Laramie Wyoming. No more buildings, cityscapes, busy streets, rush hours...am in the plain nature, in a small beautiful town surrounded by huge mountains and wild nature. 

I started to fall in love with the beauty of the town. No matter how small or boring it is, I do find the town highly attractive (some people might not agree). However, they say that it snows a lot in this area. So, I am sort of getting ready and buying snow clothes and shoes. I do not like snow, nor heavily rainy days, but I do enjoy grey sad weather. Apparently, in Laramie you can witness the four season within 24 hours. Scored !


I will talk more about Laramie in the next post (hopefully tomorrow), along with some few pictures I took with my phone while strolling around the streets.

Greetings people !

People help the people


I can go for hours with submitting  photos of people I had/still have in my life. Especially now that am freaking sick, in the bed the whole day, being nostalgic and browsing through my photography files. 
Let's just open a parenthesis ; I have mentioned in a very important paper,  that is supposed to show my various skills and academic excellence in the best shape, that I love touching sidewalks and old building bricks, hearing people talking and staring at every single detail of their facial bone structure. I can't really deny that human beings are a case of study that fascinates the hell out of me. This is why I wanted to pursue anthropology studies, however, that's another long story. 
Meeting people and befriending some happens quite frequently in a human being's life. But it seems that it's taking more importance and value for someone like me who might start counting someone's lashes while talking to them. 
Words can't really describe how much I appreciate every single fine moment I had with every living human being since I started realizing that we humans are rare masterpieces. Grateful, and thankful for these amazing friends, acquaintances and others. Leaving these people for quite a while is the hardest thing that I'm about to do. You'll be missed, a lot.


Instagram recap










Hello dearies !

The small snapshots above resume what I've been doing for the past few weeks. I have finished school, started my summer internship and still didn't get a tan YET. Actually, there is something new going on in my life which is my obsessive unexplained lust for bathing suits. I have never loved wearing bikinis, nor showing off my bum for the public.However, I still find the idea quite irritating but I will stick to my sport shorts and change the tops as I bought plenty of them.
Anyway, I haven't went to the beach yet. I am still having a week, since Ramadan is almost there (on the 9th of July I believe). Let's hope that I'll grab a towel and abduct my sister for a small ride to the beach.  

I have been also DIYing a lot. I will show you what I 've been working on in the up-coming posts. It's really fascinating how ten fingers and two eye-balls(and all of the human body per say) can make wonders. 

Some great music to let you hold on to, some chillwave for a chilly not so hot summer.



laterz !

Once upon a time...Woodstock




I am way behind in posting, I suk big time, I know. I couldn't keep up with anything I've been doing lately : too much confusions, and a lot was actually happening. 
Now, it's the "after the storm" phase. Am surprisingly enjoying it. Feeling calm and serene is something that I miss a lot. Anyway, let's sum up what happened in these past couple of months really quick  :
- I have just finished exams
- I am officially in summer break 
- I am going to spend a year in the USA, studying and shit.
- I took off my lower braces (the upper ones in a month or so).
- I cut my hair 
- I realized that am underweight and I should worry about that.
- I have took a lot of pictures but posted none of them( will do soon enough).

That's all I guess. So the pictures above were randomly taking during the spring break, in my college. Those two folks came dressing up as hippie. The weather was warm and the sun was blazing, so we had to immortalize those moments. It turned out pretty good. Love you Mohsen and Anissa

Now these are some awesome BTS shots, with Mariem and Boussarsar.


Oh ! What can I say a part from I love you, you people who make me smile while going through these pictures.

Now get ready ! A new post will be up soon.

Take care y'all

TIMUN 2013

So here is a brief summary to my TIMUN experience last week-end.

Well, TIMUN is the Tunisian International Model of United Nations during which I have been representing the honorable delegate of Iran in the DISEC committee (DISEC : disarmament and international security committee)
Highlights of the event : - as the delegation of Iran, I have a signatory country for a resolution sponsored by China and Russia. Topic was about disarmament in the MENA region.

- I have voted in favor a lot, voted against 3 times, and abstained twice.

- I have avoided to bring up the nuclear arms subject as I absolutely have no clue on the "real" intentions of Iran. But as for me, I was approving the nuclear program (not arms) of Iran that consists in Uranium enrichment, nuclear plants to produce electricity, etc...Still, the cute 16 years-old guy who represented the delegation of Bahrain kept bringing it up.

It was fun, amazing, you feel really important and that you have (dangerous) responsibilities to carry on your shoulder.


Those are my fellow distinguish delegates from other committee (from right to left :Brazil, South Africa, and then I forgot who was she).


As you can see, the delegation of Syria is provoking me.


the building has got a really beautiful ceiling.


Closure ceremony : the DISEC committee are taking pictures on the stairs. We rock !

And that was pretty much it. All of the photos were taking with my phone and they are already on my instagram.

Have fun scrolling people !

Highway to Sousse III




photos credit goes to myself, and to a bunch of my talented friends. 
So, spending some days away from the city and the usual college life have became a habit for most of us. This kind of gathering that we have named "Highway to ...." is an annual must-do.Moreover, this year's destination was Sousse (two hours away from Tunis). It was amazing and fun as usual. But in such times, when you're surrounded with friends and people who cares about you, you just wish to freeze the picture and keep living in that frame, without bordering it. Seeing that every one of them has a certain path to follow, and our paths might not cross again that reunion would be something we lust over for days, months, and years.
Anyway, I just wish all the best to each one of those crazy heads. They do deserve it. Hoping that we will meet and hang out and have fun and make a lot of noise together, one day, again.
All what remains is just beautiful memories...
Much love !
