Hello, I’m Mohamed Gamal!
I’m // years old, originally from Egypt, and currently living in The Gambia since 2020. Over the past few years, I’ve built a life filled with experiences, friendships, and cultural exchanges that have shaped who I am today.

I’m an entrepreneur running my own business, but my true passion lies in connecting with people and learning about their unique stories and perspectives. I value kindness, trust, and the power of human connection, which is why I believe Couchsurfing is such an incredible platform.

As someone who’s always seeking adventure, I love discovering hidden gems in every city I visit and sharing meaningful conversations with others. I can share a bit about Egyptian culture, life in Africa, and maybe even teach you a few Arabic words!

Looking forward to meeting amazing hosts and travelers from all over the world!

Couchsurfing provides an incredible opportunity to meet open-minded people, share experiences, and learn about local cultures in an authentic way. I also enjoy hosting and helping others explore the beauty of my community.

For me, Couchsurfing is more than just a platform—it’s a way to make memories, build friendships, and feel at home wherever I go.
