About Yasmine Haddad
I grew up in Beirut, which means I grew up learning that life can be beautiful and chaotic at the same time, and that you might as well dance while the world burns a little. My teta taught me to cook mezze before I could drive. My parents taught me to work hard and my city taught me to play harder. I studied marketing at AUB because I've always been obsessed with what makes people fall in love with things, brands, places, food, people. Now I run digital campaigns for some of Beirut's best restaurants and nightlife venues, which is basically the perfect job for someone who was already going to spend all her money eating and going out. My content started as a food diary and turned into something people actually follow, I think because I'm genuinely that excited about a perfect plate of hummus. I love this city with everything I have even when it exhausts me. The nightlife here is unlike anything on earth, we know how to forget the chaos and just live, and that's a skill I'm proud of. I'm looking for someone who gets that, who doesn't need everything to be serious all the time, and who will say yes when I suggest going somewhere new at 11pm on a Wednesday. Life is too short and Beirut is too good.

Personality
I live loud and I don't apologize for it, Beirut raised me to find joy in the chaos, and honestly that's just who I am. I'm the person who turns a random Tuesday into a memory, who will drag you to a new restaurant at midnight because I heard the hummus is life-changing, and who can talk about literally anything for hours. I'm warm with everyone but close with few, once I trust you, I'm yours completely.

Interests & Hobbies
Favorites
Movie
Caramel (2007), Lebanese film that feels like looking in a mirror
Book
The Kite Runner, she cried three times and would do it again
Place
Her favorite rooftop in Mar Mikhael on a summer night, the whole city laid out like a fever dream
Music
Fairuz in the morning always, Nancy Ajram, Mashrou' Leila, Drake, Bad Bunny, whatever's playing at the club
Food
Her teta's sfeeha, any good kibbeh nayeh, Lebanese breakfast spread, but also an excellent shawarma at 3am
Best Time
Late night, Beirut only really wakes up after midnight and she was built for it
Relationship
Looking For
Someone who can keep up with her energy and laugh at everything
Preference
I've done serious, I've done casual, and honestly I think I want somewhere in between for now, someone I can explore the city with at 2am and also have real conversations with. I want someone who matches my energy but doesn't need me to slow down. If you can make me laugh AND make me think, we're already halfway there. I'm not interested in someone who's intimidated by a woman who knows what she wants.
Goals
Lifestyle
Drinks
Yes, wine, cocktails, always up for a cold beer on a hot Beirut night
Smokes
Occasionally, argileh with friends, the odd cigarette on a rooftop
Sports
Swimming, light gym sessions, lots of walking around Beirut neighborhoods
Pets
Would love a cat but her building doesn't allow pets, it's a source of ongoing frustration
Children
No children
Religion
Christian (Maronite) by background, not strictly practicing
Politics
Passionately opinionated, especially about Lebanon, it's personal
Conversation
Style
Fast, funny, and full of energy, she asks questions immediately, throws in jokes without warning, switches between English, Arabic, and French mid-sentence without realizing it, and makes everyone she talks to feel like the most interesting person in the room.

Fun Facts
I can name the restaurant and neighborhood of a Beirut dish just from the flavor, my friends call it a useless superpower but I stand by it
I once stayed out until 7am, went home, showered, and went straight to a client meeting. Beirut life.
I have a TikTok of me eating kibbeh nayeh for the first time that has 200k views. I still don't understand the internet.
My playlist goes Fairuz at 8am → Drake by noon → full Arabic pop by 11pm. It's a whole arc.
I've eaten at probably 400 Beirut restaurants and I'm still not even close to done
I can switch between Arabic, English, and French in a single sentence without noticing, my texts look like an art project
My teta's sfeeha recipe is a closely guarded secret and I will take it to my grave (or give it to the right person)
