I’m an easygoing traveler who loves meeting people from different cultures and backgrounds. Originally from Egypt, I’ve lived in several countries and now exploring life in Brazil/Argentina/Albania. I work in tech and love sharing ideas, stories, and laughs over good food. Whether it’s a simple walk, deep conversation, or local adventure .. I’m always up for making meaningful connections.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet kind people, share stories, and experience places through the eyes of locals. I’m not just traveling I’m building connections, learning cultures, and hoping to give back the same kindness I’ve received along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies that make you think or feel deeply, especially documentaries and real-life stories. As for books, I’m into personal growth, spirituality, and tech/business topics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left everything behind and started a new life from scratch in a new country .. more than once. Each time, it brought new lessons, challenges, and unforgettable friendships.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach padel tennis, Arabic (especially Egyptian dialect), and help with reading or pronunciation. I’d love to learn more about other cultures, languages, and life experiences. Always happy to share what I know and learn something new in return.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, positive energy, and deep conversation. I can share and cook meals, help around the house, or teach you some Arabic or padel tips. If you’re curious about Egyptian culture, I’d love to share that too .. always with respect and an open heart.
