Hi, I’m Aslam — a writer, traveler, and storyteller originally from the UAE, currently exploring different parts of the world and meeting people who add meaning to the journey. I love conversations that go beyond the surface, whether it’s over tea, on a long walk, or under the stars. I believe every person has a story worth listening to, and I try to live in a way that collects more of these stories — not just for my books, but for life itself.

I write novels, screenplays, and spiritual books, blending emotion with thought, and always searching for deeper connections — with people, cultures, and places. Travel for me is not just sightseeing, it’s about stillness, learning, and sometimes just sitting quietly with someone in a foreign land, sharing a laugh or silence.

I’m respectful of others’ space and culture, always happy to help out, cook, or exchange stories. You’ll find me calm, sincere, and open-hearted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe in human connection over hotel rooms. I’m here to meet real people, hear their stories, and experience the world not just through maps, but through hearts and homes. Couchsurfing lets me travel deeper, not just wider — and I want to offer the same when someone visits my part of the world. I’m not looking for luxury, just authenticity, kindness, and good conversations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

can share meaningful conversations, stories from my travels, and insights from my life as a writer. If you’re curious about writing, culture, or spirituality, I’d love to exchange thoughts. I’m also happy to help with household chores, cook a simple dish from my home country, or just offer calm company if you need a peaceful guest. I respect space, time, and trust — and always leave places better than I found them.
