I’m an social entrepreneur born in UAE and ethnically Pakistani. I'm working in education and renewable energy.

I love traveling to understand cultures, meet interesting people, and exchange ideas.
I enjoy meaningful conversations, exploring local food, and learning how people live in different parts of the world.

When I travel, I try to live like a local rather than a tourist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here because I value genuine human connections while traveling. Staying with locals gives a much deeper understanding of a place than simply visiting it as a tourist. It’s an opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from different ways of life, and build friendships across cultures. I appreciate the spirit of openness and trust that this community represents and enjoy being part of experiences that bring people from different parts of the world together

Interests

I love meaningful conversations about ideas, entrepreneurship, education, and the future of our societies. Exploring local neighborhoods, trying authentic food, learning traditions, and simply walking through a city observing everyday life excites me far more than typical tourist activities. I’m naturally curious, open-minded, and always eager to learn something new from the people I meet along the journey.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rap Music mostly and sometimes classical too.
Books: Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari, Lean Startup by Eric, Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.
Movies: Peaky blinders, the pursuit of happiness, 300 Spartans. I like mostly action/thrillers movies but sometimes classic love stories too like the notebook.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have planted 62000 plants till date and still counting. To me it's like a mission to plant 1 million trees so when I leave the earth, I have contributed something for it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach and share stories about Pakistani culture, traditions, and everyday life, and I’m always happy to talk about entrepreneurship, education, and renewable energy, which I work in. I can also show how we make traditional Pakistani chai and share perspectives about life and business in South Asia, Florida and UAE as I have spent some part of my life over these places. I would love to learn about local cultures, traditions, languages, and the real daily life of the places I visit.
