Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing to meet people and make many friends ! To me couchsurfing is the only way to get an authentic feel of a place, through the eyes of a local, and a great way to reach out to locals as well as getting the insider low down, skip the tourist traps... The best way to travel.
Music, Movies, and Books
Reggae, Hip hop, sitcom, séries etc...
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Biking 60 kms a day in Oussouye department (Ziguinchor)
Teach, Learn, Share
How to greet in Wolof (useful when traveling to Senegal or The Gambia): A: Asalaam aleikum. B: Malekum salaam. A: Naga def? B: Maangiy fii. A: Ana waa keur gi? B: Nungiy faa. A: Alhamdullilah. This means, more or less: A: Hello! B: Hello! A: How are you? B: I am here. A: How is the family? B: They are there. A: Thanks be to God. (optional, but always a good idea, I figure!) When in doubt, when greeting in Wolof, you can always say "Alhamdullilah - Thanks be to God!," or "Jamm rekk," which means 'Peace only.'
What I Can Share With Hosts
My house, hospitality, Casamance culture, the nature and many interesting things like a nice time is Ziguinchor. I can show the city and especially my neighbourhood. You can meet my friends. I do not want people to only crash on my couch. I want them to have a nice time in Ziguinchor.
My Interests
Sport, Music, Cinema, Automobile etc ....
