Hi, I’m Saqib Ali, currently living in the beautiful city of Gilgit, surrounded by stunning mountains and nature. I’m a business school graduate with a passion for entrepreneurship, running a few small ventures that keep me busy and motivated.

Beyond work, I’m someone who values meaningful connections and believes in lifelong learning. I enjoy meeting new people, exploring different cultures, and exchanging ideas and stories. While I’m still discovering my hobbies, I love trying new things, whether it’s a recipe, an outdoor activity, or diving into an interesting conversation.

I’ve joined Couchsurfing to connect with like-minded travelers and share the beauty of Gilgit with others. Whether hosting guests or exploring new places myself, I’m excited to create memories, exchange knowledge, and make the world feel a little smaller and more connected.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I love the idea of connecting with people from all over the world and sharing authentic experiences. Traveling isn’t just about seeing new places; it’s about meeting new people, exchanging cultures, and creating memories that last a lifetime.

Through Couchsurfing, I hope to build meaningful connections, learn from others’ experiences, and offer the same in return. Whether it’s hosting travelers or being a guest, I’m excited to contribute to a global community built on trust, kindness, and shared adventures.

Algo increíble que he hecho

One amazing thing I’ve done is starting and running my own business from scratch. It’s been a challenging yet rewarding journey that taught me resilience, adaptability, and the value of hard work. Through it, I’ve not only gained financial independence but also learned how to connect with people and build lasting relationships—a skill I cherish when meeting new friends around the world, also all the treks I have completed so far
