    @rosebluemusic92922 years ago Sabaho mac & mabelle. And all the squad. Talking about lebanon a great country because of it' s great people. It has been facing unrest for id="hidden27" sooo many years. Amp; economy collapse & the port disaster. But with all that. What keeps it alive is lebanese beautiful lively people they love life. It' s known as the middle east paris. Also the beauty of this country is outstanding. We pray for them to get better. I agree on encouraging the tourism cause this will revive it' s economy. And lebanese people deserve to live a good life. After all what' s happening. How beautiful that restaurant at the port. Wow during sunset & night lights. The desert is sooo yumy. You & mabelle made me hungry hhh i love you both. Love mabelle' s smile a lot. You both are the sweetest & bring smiles to me always. ...Expand 1

    @comrade9162 years ago Lebanon is certainly safe enough to visit. However, especially at this moment, lebanon is a country of contrasts. One must realize this. Women walking around flaunting their breast and behinds is not acceptable in most parts of lebanon. Half the country is in utter poverty. Over 65 percent of the population is muslim. The country is ripe for a revolution and if this occurs, bye to the christian population. Also, my impression of many in lebanon is that it is quite superficial. Based on consumerism and glamour. If you want the true, authentic arab hospitality, go to damascus, syria. ...Expand
