I love to travel, cook, dance, walk, trek, listen to music and share all those things with nice people.

My time is split between Marrakech, where I share an apartment with my cousin, and Tamegroute, where I run a desert bivouac for tourists and locals alike.

When I am in Marrakech, people are welcome to stay in my apartment. Sometimes I am unavailable, but my cousin Houssan is often able to host in my absence.

When I am in Tamegroute, people are welcome to stay with me in my home in the village. The desert bivouac is just 7km away, and I often spend my evenings there. A stay in the bivouac can be arranged for anyone who is interested, there are also camel rides and other exciting things to do and see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My family hosted a lot of people in the desert in my childhood. Nowadays it's easier with Couchsurfing: it's a wonderful way to meet new people and encounter new cultures.

Making friends, learning from other peoples' cultures and traditions, learning languages, discovering new art, music, movies, and all the tiny things of life: these are the reasons I love to host people in my home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling around the world :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn other languages, especially Spanish, and practice my English and French. I can teach Tamazight (my Mother Tongue) and Arabic and share my customs with anyone.

Making friends ... learning from other people cultures and traditions.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you about the desert because I was born there, and it's an important part of my life. I also enjoy cooking, so I can share our local recipes with you. Playing music is one of my favourite hobbies so you're welcome at my place if you want to improve your music skills.
I know the desert like the back of my hand.
I would like to learn anything about culture, computers, and the Internet.
Swapping travelling stories is always a pleasure.
