I’m Ghaida, born in the U.S., raised in Saudi, and rooted in its north.
I speak Arabic and English, and somehow both worlds shaped me equally.

I live in Riyadh now and find joy in simple things — honest talks, unplanned days, and quiet moments that end up meaning the most.

If you’re curious to see Saudi from a local’s point of view, I’m happy to share a few favorite spots and everyday experiences.

What I Offer
I sometimes plan:
- Cultural meetups (coffee, exhibitions, hidden spots, or seasonal events)
- Day plans to explore the city with conversation and local context
- Small group road trips (4+ people) to other Saudi cities, led by locals, shaped by real stories

⚠️ Important Note
I don’t use this app for dating.
I don’t host or stay overnight.
I meet travelers in public places only.
I don’t accept vague, fake, or mysterious profiles.
I don’t promise experiences, I just show up and let the moment shape itself.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Old songs are my favorite. I like movies based on real stories. not much into reading books, I’d rather watch them come to life on screen!
