About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel. Learn. Laugh. Live.

ABOUT ME

I love to meet new people, see new places, experience new things - and especially having things shaken up a bit once in a while!

I've grown a profound love for the Middle East and Arabic culture, and planning on seeing as much as possible in that region. But the fondness has mostly developed because I've been fortunate enough to have good local friends willing to show me around and consider me a family member. This is why I'm also part of CS, hoping to continue this tradition!

I rarely visit the same place twice, instead I always try to go new places, preferably places I haven't heard of or want to surpass the stereotypes of.

Please, if you write to me, teach me a word in your language, just to indicate that you have read this far.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelled and couchsurfed around the Middle East and West Africa, allegedly some of the most unsafe places to travel. Had nothing but absolutely positive experiences!

Interests

I love music, photography, travelling and languages. Meeting new people and visiting new places, engaging in other cultures and growing as a person is something I'll never be finished with!

Also, I looove food (especially trying out the food at small, local street shops, along with homemade food from around the world) - but I'm an absolutely terrible cook myself!
