About Me

I’m an electrical engineer who likes circuits and love to design chips. I want to change the world both from my education and as an individual, Im a nature loving person and believe in conservation of resources for future generations. I’m a good spirited individual with an outdoorsy personality. I also like to Volunteer in my free time in different areas of the society and my surrounding community. My goal is to experience, grow learn and share across the Couchsurfing community. I’m a little new to CS and building up to be a part of the community as a surfer as well as a host.

PS: I have a beard now apparent from my last two pictures

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience and connect with other couch surfers on my way to explore the world while on outdoor excursions. Get to know people from various backgrounds + cultures and myself being a Muslim, remove misconceptions of some of the false rhetoric out there that has hurt individuals from my background. Try to experience the nature of good relations and friendship by sharing.
And would love to go to ski trips in your local area

So far I had the opportunity to couch surf and have some hosts host me In the country of Saudi Arabia.
Withing the US I have had multiple hosts, in ID, NY and TX (will add to the list)

Interests

Hiking, backpacking, snowboarding, National Park Geek, meeting people from other cultures

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sky diving with a friend in Santa Cruz and going through a perfect ring of cloud while decending in free fall

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d like to learn surfing someday and be a better swimmer. I’d like to share my life stories, my background and culture, spread positivity.

And if I’m in Pakistan, I can definitely vouch to be a host in my rich cultural city of Lahore which offers great Mughal Architecture and Awesome food:
Here’s a brief example on Instagram from a food traveler:

What I Can Share with Hosts

For Hosts: Some good culinary food and some traditional gifts from my home country. I like to cook. And maybe help you with some nifty tasks that you may be struggling with

For Guests:I can share some nice neighborhood exploration of the city I live in here in Texas. There are certain activities to do but nothing too outdoorsy other than arts and culture and some spots that can be explore.

Countries I’ve Lived In
