Hello there, I'm Abir and I'm from Morocco. Passionate about traveling, meeting new people, and immersing myself in new cultures. It all started exactly 9 years ago when I traveled abroad for the first time and spent two months in India, that trip was so life-changing to me, the things I learned, the people from all the different parts of the world I had the chance to meet and become family with despite all of our differences, opened my eyes to the world.
Since that summer I was lucky enough to spend the last years of my life studying, working and traveling abroad.

I speak fluent English, Arabic and French, and would be more than happy to teach you some of it!

The reason I joined Couchsurfing is to have the opportunity to meet locals and travelers alike, I'm often the first Moroccan people meet so I love the opportunity to introduce people to my background and my culture.

Feel free to message me for a quick chat, do you wish to learn more about me! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most memorable thing about travel for me is the people I meet. Connecting with people, learning about them, their culture, hearing their life stories brings me great joy, and is the reason why I travel.
