Hello! I’m Saiful Islam Shanto, a passionate traveler from Bangladesh, currently on a world journey entirely on foot.
My journey, titled “World Travel on Foot,” began on March 22, 2024, from Dhaka, Bangladesh, and is a peaceful, historic mission to connect people and promote environmental awareness.

So far, I have walked across Bangladesh, India, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Nepal, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka, Singapore and I’m currently in Indonesia , and the journey continues with hope and determination.

Back in Bangladesh, I’ve actively worked on various environmental awareness campaigns and participated in numerous marathons, both locally and internationally, as a dedicated runner. Inspired by a deep love for nature and human connection, I chose this unique path walking across the world.

As a budget traveler, I often rely on the kindness and hospitality of people along the way. I warmly welcome your support especially with accommodation which helps make this journey more sustainable and meaningful. I look forward to meeting kind souls from all walks of life as I continue on foot.

Through traveling, I hope to reduce the distance between people from different countries and build lifelong friendships around the world.

Thank you for being part of this journey!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The main reason I joined Couchsurfing is to connect with local people, experience cultural exchange, and learn deeply about each place I visit. It’s not just about staying somewhere, it’s about building real human connections and friendships across the world.

As I’m traveling around the world on foot, Couchsurfing helps me stay connected with people everywhere, share stories, and experience kindness beyond borders.

Getting to know people from different countries, learning about their cultures, and building friendships around the world this is what inspires me.
I believe that through meaningful connections and new friendships, we can reduce the distance between people from different nations and create a more united world.
My goal is to make travel easier and more enriching for fellow travelers by encouraging mutual support and cultural exchange.
By helping one another, we can build strong, positive relationships across borders.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Actually, I’m currently on a world journey, so I’m unable to host at the moment as I’m not in my home country. I’m sorry for the inconvenience during this temporary period.
