Hello! I'm Hossam Ahmed, an Egyptian soul with a global heart 🌍. I live in the vibrant city of Cairo and work as a Credit Manager in a bank—but beyond the numbers, I’m passionate about people, stories, and the beauty of human connection.

I love traveling and meeting people from different cultures. Every conversation is a window into a new world, and I’m always eager to listen, learn, and laugh. Whether it’s walking through historic streets, reading a thoughtful book, cooking a heartfelt meal, or simply sharing stories over tea—I find joy in the little things that bring us closer.

I believe in peace, kindness, and the idea that we are all brothers and sisters, no matter where we come from. My dream is simple but powerful: a world without war, where love replaces hate, and every person feels safe, respected, and welcomed.

I’m open-minded, curious, and always ready to share a smile. If you’re visiting Cairo, I’d be happy to show you the warmth of Egyptian hospitality and maybe cook something delicious together 🍲. Let’s exchange stories, laughter, and memories that last.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe traveling is not just about visiting new places, but about connecting with people and creating meaningful memories. Couchsurfing gives me the chance to experience a city through the eyes of locals, share cultures, and make genuine friendships along the way.

I’m here to meet open-minded people, exchange stories, and enjoy the simple joy of cultural exchange. For me, it’s not only about finding a place to stay, but about building real human connections.

Interests

I’m passionate about exploring new cultures, connecting with people from different backgrounds, and sharing experiences that make travel more meaningful. I enjoy long walks around cities, discovering hidden spots, and learning the stories behind them. Music, good food, and deep conversations always inspire me I love cooking traditional Egyptian dishes and exchanging recipes with others.

I’m also interested in history, photography, and learning about local lifestyles. For me, Couchsurfing isn’t just about a place to stay, but about creating real friendships and cultural exchange.
