Hello! I’m an English language graduate with a passion for literature and cultural exchange, living in the beautiful Soran region of Kurdistan, Iraq. I love exploring new cultures and connecting with people from all walks of life. Whether it's discussing a great book, sharing travel stories, or simply chatting about life, I’m always up for an engaging conversation.

I’m deeply curious and eager to learn, believing that every encounter is a chance to grow. Volunteering has been a rewarding part of my journey, particularly at the Career Development Center of Soran University, where I assisted students with career planning. Through Couchsurfing, I hope to meet like-minded travelers, exchange experiences, and explore the local culture in meaningful ways.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing to connect with fellow travelers and people from diverse cultures. I believe in the power of authentic, face-to-face exchanges that allow me to learn from others and share experiences. Whether I’m hosting or being hosted, my goal is to build meaningful connections, explore new places through local perspectives, and create lasting memories with people who share a love for travel and discovery.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have watched several series of popular movies such as; Game of thrones, Breaking bad, Prison Break, and pretty little liar. I love to listen slow music and read books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most fulfilling experiences I’ve had was volunteering at the Career Development Center of Soran University. I had the opportunity to help students plan their careers, guiding them through the process of defining their goals and taking steps toward their future. It was incredibly rewarding to see them grow and gain the confidence to pursue their dreams, knowing I played a small part in their journey.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing my knowledge of literature and English /Turkish and Kurdish language skills, whether it’s through discussing books or offering language tips.
I’m always eager to learn about new cultures, languages, and perspectives. I enjoy hearing different stories and gaining insights from fellow travelers and locals alike.
I enjoy exchanging stories about travel, personal experiences, and the beauty of cultural diversity. Whether it’s sharing a local dish from my region or a favorite book, I believe that every exchange has something valuable to offer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a unique perspective on life in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, along with interesting stories about the local culture, traditions, and history. I enjoy meaningful conversations, so I’ll be happy to engage in discussions about travel, culture, or any topic that sparks curiosity.

I offer a room to sleep, a shower, clean sheets, towels, laundry facilities, and Wi-Fi. As I’m currently single and on a limited budget due to unemployment, I may not be able to offer much in terms of food or drink, but I’ll do my best to share what I can. Most importantly, I can offer transportation if needed, and I’d be happy to show you around or offer a tour guide experience and friendship.
