About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn as much as possible about this world and curb stereotypes.

ABOUT ME

My name is Talha and I love learning about people's life experience and how it shaped them into the individuals they've become. I'm on CS to develop an understanding of how diverse and rich our different cultures are while enjoying what life has to offer. My wife and I can't host anymore, but it'd be nice to meet up for tea or coffee or maybe go for walk.

PHILOSOPHY

What goes around comes around; so do good and good will come to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to participate in all possible ways by organizing events, growing a 1000+ member CS community in Marrakesh, hosting and meeting. Now, life got busy, but I'm open to meeting occasionally. Feel free to reach out and we could figure out some time to meet for coffee.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

200% POSITIVE !! = )

Interests

I love traveling, so I can just pack up my stuff and hit the road every time I get the chance to do it. I'm also a lot into sports and gym, and I enjoy pretty much all types of outdoor activities. Always willing to try up new activities and challenges.

I am passionate about languages; I speak Arabic, French, English and Spanish, and I am always working on improving all of them.
