Slumfe صلمفة

A trekking so well-organized in the north of Syria next to a resort village of Slumfe صلمفة :
The rules was strictly respected : (And this is a point in which I say how proud am I that I've been walking in the nature land in middle east with a perfect respect for the natural reserve!!)
-Forbidden to through paper's and to smoke : everybody respected it during the 10 hours of the trekking and some people used our plastic bags to take of the rare papers we found out around the nature trail!
In the north of Lattaquieh, this natural reserve is a treasury: a whole Lebanese cedar forest with thousand types of birds, insects and flowers, worthy of note!

Home, sweet home?

After one week of trying to find home, it seems that today is a success day?
Last Wednesday, I met a Syrian guy that would like to live with a foreigner. It is very difficult to meet arabic student to live with because mos of them live with their family or in the student residence. He is not a student, he is working as graphic designer (http://www.juanzero.com).
If everything works, after signing papers, will be home in 2 days, inch Allah!
Will live in Mezze so I will be nearer to the university than in Baramkeh!

Looking for a new home...

As I planned my coming in Syria, I am now looking for a new student house or residence to live in during this year. My current home was only for the first month because I am living with foreigners and I want to live only with arabs. I would like to experience the arabic way of life and had a cheaper bill than the Baramkeh fee. I am searching for about 2 weeks but I did not find any contacts that succeed. Here, it works diferent, they is not any board in the university where to look about it. I asked many Syrian, I know that there is a residence in Mezze.
