I remember my first experience with Hookah, I was 8 years old (I know that it might seem weird for most "normal" people) when I smoked my first hookah with my uncle, in a libanese restaurant in Morocco. I really liked it, even though after some puffs I felt the worst feeling, I felt so dizzy, my head was turning.
