Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was introduced to couchsurfing the year 2025 by one of the CS travelers who had come to explore the beautiful city Lamu old town. I was so dumb since I love meeting different people from different parts of the world.Learning different cultures and lifestyles , sharing my local and traditional way of life. In my life,I have been accepting guests because they teach a lot and that helps me grow mentally and gain more experience.

Interests

Boxing is my therapy. I am interested in going to the gym, doing cardio exercises for fitness, boxing , and morning running on the beach.
Playing with pets i.e seeing them happy,walking along the beach and watching the sand dunes sunset.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music has become a chronic rhythm in my move,it takes a big percentage in my brain since it motivates me in the gym, while running,if exhausted it helps me relieve and makes my brain freshen up. ( Hip hop,afro beats, summer songs)
