S1|E8 - FROM POVERTY TO PHILANTHROPIC PROPERTY MOGUL - AYAD NASSER

What this episode covers

The final episode of Reel Talk Season 1 ends on a high note with the inspirational Ayad Nasser. Born in the small seaside village of Ouzaii, Ayad suffered hardship from an early age, growing up during Lebanon’s Civil War and compounded with his parents splitting. Despite these obstacles, Ayad embarked on a solo journey that led to tremendous success and took him to Monaco, Europe, South America, and the US before returning to his beloved Lebanon. After establishing a boutique development and investment company and seeing the chaotic, deterioration of the country, he took it upon himself to initiate a project to beautify his home village, Ouzaii, which had become one of Beirut’s worst slum areas. Today “Ouzville”, as it has been renamed, is a symbol of colour and hope thanks to the collaborative efforts of Ayad’s partner, Russian artist, Viktoria Latysheva, who with world-renowned street artists revived Ouzaii and created a legacy for all to share.Subscribe and turn on 🔔 so you DON'T miss a videoSupport our work herehttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=TEAEE8YVEU996
