Hele_Noor Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi! Can I join your thread? I'm not a Lebanese, but I'd been to Lebanon recently and have been lurking around in your thread since I came back from. I am sorry for that but pls believe me I had throughly good intentions It didn't feel right for me to join in so far I read that some people who'd like to go to Mika's concert were still hesitated about Lebanon. I'd like to say to them that if you have no plans for your holiday,yet, and you have a chance to buy the tickets, then take your best friends with you and make a trip to Lebanon. Don't take it just as a concert, but try to stay there for a week, at least, and make it as a holiday trip. You won't regret and your friends will say thank you to you. My friends did. Now they keep asking me when will we return :) Sry, now I've used more words than I initially planned - but I had to speak it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hele_Noor Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 first welcome to the MFC and second welcome to the lebanese thread ! everyone here is friendly and we all love lebanon...each one on his own way...i travelled a lot and honestly lebanon IS the country that most represents the world...it's just a smaller world...people from different religion , ethnic group , language , accent , colour of skin , nationality...and i'm not saying that because i'm lebanese but it's a fact. I hope you enjoyed your stay there. Are you thinking of returning there ? Thank you cubitus! Can say nothing about ethnic group, language and accent since I don't speak nor understand Arabic (only a few words). Speaking about color of skin I was quite a surprised of meeting ashes blond lebanese. Lebanon is like a collection of small countries. Quadisha valley is absolutly an equivalent to Switzerland! I think I behaved as a Japanese tourist,taking loads of pictures. In Quadisha nature is so beautiful it can make you cry. Byblos is like a town of Crete or Amalfi coast in Italy, Baalbek and Tyre remind the old part of Amman in Jordan. And a part of Tripoli and Sidon were very Middle Eastern But we also saw the other side of Tripoli when we found a lovely jazz cafe with lovely paintings on the walls and which was full of people (oh, can't resist to cafes fulfilled with people and the murmur of their voices when they're having a good time) That cosy cafe as well as the whole block seemed to be as from Beirut. One of my favourite places was the campus of AUB. There was a truly good atmosphere, a free atmosphere. And people look so smart:thumb_yello: Thanks god I don't have to compete with them to get a job:roftl: Yes, we have discussed about the idea of going back to Lebanon next spring and do things we couldn't do this time because of a lack of time. 10 days flew too quickly So if you have ideas about the places we could see of things to do,speak it out, I'd be very grateful.

I often drink wine on the plane and always ask for a seat next to the window so that I could watch the clouds and the earth down there.. And flying is also a pleasant begining and end of a journey, I love travelling.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the fact of being in a country and finding myself a few hours later in a totally different country , i like being in a plane but even though i've taken the plane like 20-30 times in my life im still afraid of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
