Issam RaadMy journey is nothing but transient freedom; A particular existence amongst infinite others. I was born in Lebanon, in 1997. I was given a name, nationality, and religion without my consensus. Therefore, they are guilty until proven innocent.In my scool education, I was subjected to curricula that never matched my thinking, and consequently, I graduated with the lowest grade in my class.Later, I joined Azm University where I found the educational method that convinced me, so I graduated with the highest score in my class.But what are grades? Do they matter?Anyway, At Azm, I unexpectedly discovered my passion for theory and creativity, because I enjoyed inserting every architectural project within a deep philosophical background. Thus, I decided to start writing my first book, which is the one you're reading right now, just after my graduation in 2021.Recently, I graduated from the American University of Beirut with a master's degree in Urban Design.I'm also a practitioner of Aikido, a Japanese martial art, for I admire the Japanese mentality and lifestyle, and allow them to influence many aspects of my life.Finally, I'm a polyglot and enjoy learning various languages such as Spanish, Italian, German, and Greek to immerse myself in different cultures. So, the book has another version in Spanish, a language I admire.I could perhaps practice more things, but I'll always be a student in a vast mysterious existence.People say I'm an outlaw because I refuse what others call reality, but I call myself a free man because reality cannot be defined; I choose to rule my life, and this book reflects an experience.
