Hi! My name is Shaleem, I am 21 years old. I graduated from the University of Brighton, England with a BSc in Biomedical Sciences, and have been toying with the idea of travelling every since i graduated! I work as a barista, bartender and, as a sales associate at Dr Martens. I am happily leaving all my responsibilities here, in England, for an adventure around the Nordics (Denmark, Norway and Iceland in particular!)

I consider myself a fairly novice traveller, this will be my first expedition out! So i want to make the most of it, hearing stories from locals, meeting locals and swapping stories with whomever I meet.. the typical cliche travelling story, I guess.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is my essence of travelling, hearing stories, embracing a foreign culture and the thrill of adventure!

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is very very weird, literally ranges from everything.. so a few artists are: Arctic Monkeys, A day to remember, The Stone Roses, Blink 182, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Moose blood, System of a down. To name a few I'd love to get to know your music!

Not the biggest Movie person, but Lord of the Rings Trilogy is my favorite! Re-watched a small 17 times..

Countries I’ve Visited

Bangladesh, France, Spain
