Social media are created to enrich our experiences and broaden our perspectives, not to showcase intimate parts of our bodies or deceive others. We should aim to spend our precious time on valuable activities.

This is my personal Facebook profile. I have made it public because the page for the news site where I work was shut down due to my articles about the war in Ukraine and in Palestine. Therefore, I kindly ask you not to send private messages. I occasionally post travel videos and sometimes share my political opinions as I did on the other page. Please be patient during these days as I work to resolve the issue of the closed page. For work requests regarding video and photo editing, I will update you in a few days when I have more free time from my night job at the hotel. Thank you to everyone who helped me with the vote to restore the page that was closed.
