"Travelling gives you home in a thousand strange places, then leaves you a stranger in your own land"
~ Ibn Battuta

Born and raised in Saudi Arabia. I’ve been living in Melbourne for the last 7 years and now I’ve become too Arab for Aussies and too Aussie for Arabs 🥳

I love nature and I love going camping a lot. When I’m not working I like going on walks and exploring in nature or experimenting with a new hobby. Lately, I have been into herbalism and I have been making my own herbal medicine and tea blends.

I’m easy going, I like to connect with people and learn about their interests. Terrible navigator in cities but excellent navigator off road.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and learn about different cultures. I love listening to people when they talk about their life stories and experiences and I’ve been told that I’m a good listener. But sometimes my ADHD brain kicks in and gets way too excited to share my stories too!

I’m not here for free accommodation, I’m here for a true CS experience and human connection and I expect that you are too.

I went to a school in a village when I was in rural Indonesia and it was the best experience I’ve ever had

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe the world would be slightly better when people share their homes, food, stories and even their troubles. I can’t do much but I do the best I can!
