Lakeside creator 🌊 | Preserving Ethiopia’s ancient mural art 🎨 | Forex Trader 📈 | Host to travelers 🌍

​I am a passionate artist and interior designer based in the beautiful city of Bahir Dar. Since joining Couchsurfing in 2012, I have had the honor of hosting over 60 travelers from 35+ different countries. For me, Couchsurfing is more than just a place to stay; it’s a gateway to cultural exchange and lifelong friendships.

​I manage a local art gallery where I work to preserve and promote Ethiopia's rich mural art heritage. When I’m not painting or analyzing the markets, I love sharing the hidden gems of Lake Tana and the Blue Nile with my guests. "Rooted in the past, kind in the present, faithful to the future."

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am here to share experiences and build meaningful connections. I believe that meeting people from different walks of life is the best way to grow. My goal is to make life-changing steps by learning about new cultures while showing the true, hospitable spirit of Ethiopia to the world.
