Hi, I’m Fatima.
For now, I’m just a student and I like meeting new people and forming real connections. Nothing beats getting a tiny glimpse into the everyday rhythm of a life completely different from my own. Cultures, traditions, habits, the little things.. all of that fascinates me way more than anything else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing feels like a very good way to learn how others live their “normal” life, beyond the filters and guidebooks.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly like short stories and non-fiction books. I’m into absurdism and hedonism more than I’d like to admit.
Count Poor Folk by Dostoevsky and Free Day by Inès Cagnati as my favorite books.

As for music, nowadays i mostly listen to pop songs (the life of a show girl is on repeat dare i say), but when i’m in the mood i also listen to indie, soft rock, folk and classical persian songs. Currently my favorite artists are Aurora, Novo Amor and Flower Face.
