Hello! My name is Seham (See-ham). I am 27 years old and I currently have multiple jobs in the wellness world! I teach meditation classes, certify people to teach mindfulness, write audio sessions to help people sleep, and I manage events and programs for the Dallas Yoga Center.

I lived in Cairo, Egypt for 6 years and 1 year in London while I was completing my master's degree at King's College London.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You will never know a city properly until you connect with the people who live there. I'll buy you a cup of coffee or drink of your choice if you share your story, ambitions, or things that make you laugh with me.

Interests

I have a small little Fujifilm XA2 that I take with me everywhere. I'm not too interested in shooting professionally or making a buck, but I always love improving the quality of my photos and getting shots of unique humans in the world. I hope my photos become as bold as Vivian Maier.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently reading Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Murakami. Other books I enjoyed reading are 1984, The Bell Jar, The Glass Castle, and pretty much anything with a surrealist, dystopian, uncomfortable edge.
I check the Economist pretty avidly at the moment.

I love my hip hop, old is gold.

The Odd Couple is a comedic classic and Robin William is my super hero.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In my professional life, I did research on the neuroscience of mindfulness.

Travel-wise, I camped in the Sahara Desert in Siwa, Egypt. It was the most peaceful and energizing two days of my life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I teach mindfulness and meditation if you're interested in chilling out. I'm also a good listener and love board games. Pretty professional at cranium, taboo, and charades.
