🌀Our Story🌀
Tarek Kholoussy, a social entrepreneur with an MBA from New York University, had a successful career at top organizations like Goldman Sachs. Despite living the good life on the surface, Tarek felt unfulfilled. His turning point came on a rainy day in New York City when he encountered a woman who had left her corporate job to travel and create a social enterprise. This serendipitous encounter along with a few powerful moments woke to chase down his dreams.
In 2013, Tarek made the bold decision to leave the corporate world and explore the actual world. He visited over 100 countries, ran 25 marathons, and supported many social causes. This journey of personal and spiritual growth revealed to him that true fulfillment comes from making a difference in other people’s lives.
In 2018, Tarek founded Nomads Giving Back! with a vision to connect nomads with local communities through volunteering and cultural exchange. To expand their impact, he also launched Nomads Skillshare, empowering people to learn valuable skills through courses, workshops, and mentoring programs, including those less privileged through scholarships
