Overview
About Me
📍 Fez
Hello friends :) Im a 19 year old student, currently on a gap year, who loves to travel and learn about other places and people. I was born in the United States, grew up in Germany and my parents are from Eritrea and Ethiopia, so i have always interacted with many different cultures. I am fluent in 4 languages and conversational in 2 more. My goal is to eventually visit every country in the world and I have been lucky enough to have visited more than 50 already.
I'm currently traveling, so unfortunately I can't host. It's been 13 months of budget travel and these are the countries I visited:
France, Spain, Monaco, Sweden, Czechia, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon, Cyprus, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Egypt, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Qatar, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Belgium, Senegal, Mauritania, Western Sahara and Morocco. I'm excited to meet you in your country as well!

Teach, Learn, Share
My message to the world is that we should realize that we all have more in common with each other than we have differences, so we should learn to love each other as much as we love ourselves and live peacefully.
What I Can Share with Hosts
With me you will have a fun time, great conversations and participate in cultural exchange. If you would be open to it, i will happily cook traditional East African food for you. Im also a very clean person so I will leave your place just as I found it. Hopefully I will see you soon ;)
