Hello!

My name’s Mohammed, I’m a 23-year-old guy born and raised in Sweden. I’m a multi-disciplinary person, intrterested in politics and studying International Relations but enjoy various forms of art. I’m a hobby-photographer and interested in filmmaking and linguistics. Every once a year, I pick up a few pencils and draw and paint.

I speak Swedish, English, Arabic, some German, a bit of French and I’m currently learning Portuguese.

As a person, I’m shy but eventually warm up. I’m introverted yet energetic and adventurous. I’m always more than willing to offer a helping hand, and I’m always down to meet fellow travellers. To potential hosts, I can always provide you a free photo session in return, and I make the best hummus in the world. 😁

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
