My full name is Tahir Khan but my friends mostly call me by TK or just simply Tahir. I consider Calgary, Alberta in Canada as home because that's where I grew up and currently live when not traveling. I love to travel and so far I have been to only 26 countries, mostly in the Middle East and South East Asia. However, I have been living in Washington DC for the past 5 months to do an internship with the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children . My internship ended a few days ago and now I will be on the road soon to make my way to South America and experience the rich culture of that part of the world while also share my own culture with the people I meet on the way. I have never couch surfed before but I am going to give it a try and if you happen to host me I thank you in advance and even if you do not host me and are reading my bio I still thank you!:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling on budget that's one of the reasons while also really want to see and experience the non-hostel side of travels by
Meeting and staying with the locals.

Interests
