Lebanese mother, Iranian father, both passports, and a childhood that involved Beirut, Tehran, Sharjah and finally Mumbai when I was nineteen. Twenty-six now, six years here, and Mumbai has become the city my heart calls home even though my Hindi is still a work in progress. I work as a freelance Arabic-English translator and this fills the gap when contracts are quiet.
My clients are mostly Gulf businessmen passing through, with a small handful of Mumbai regulars who like the difference. I am tall, I dress for hotel bars, and I am very specific about which rooms I will walk into. The Trident, the Sahara Star, the Hyatt - those are my comfort hotels. Three-hour minimum, evenings only.
For clients filtering through foreigner companion profiles, I am a quieter Middle Eastern fit rather than the louder Eastern European archetype. Please be polite on first message. Arabic and English both fine; my Hindi is conversational at best. WhatsApp only, photo after intro.
