Hello, my name is Hiyas. I mostly work online and remotely that is why I can manage to do some short or long-term traveling.

I only used this app in 2016 then went on hiatus. I haven't been using this app since then because my travels became more and more spontaneous (no time to post and request here) and I stayed mostly in backpacker hostels where I also got to meet a lot of amazing people from different parts of the world.

I want to revive and check this app again from time to time as I plan to do more traveling this year. I am hoping to meet new friends and fellow travelers, and most importantly to gain new knowledge from other people and new insights about life in general.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I embrace diversity and I'm here to meet interesting people and learn their culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In October to December 2022, I went on a spontaneous backpacking trip through India and Nepal for two months. I did a week-long hiking in the Himalayas (Poonhill with the view of Annapurna).
