Hello there,

My name is Aziza, and I’m a freelance writer + consultant for several fashion and beauty publications (call me if you have a job – I have two cats to feed).

I majored in Psychology so that I could be my own free counselor, and of course, read people’s minds.

I am a bit of a loner who likes piña coladas, and getting caught in the rain. My sense of humor is an acquired taste ranging between lame punchlines to immature 13 year old boy dirty jokes.

I love to travel whenever possible because I have deep-rooted commitment issues with life. If I’m at home then you might find me living my fantasy life on the Sims.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I could give the generic answer "I love meeting new people" - which I do, don't get me wrong. But truthfully, I'm just looking for a change of pace. Or, maybe I'm going through an existential crisis? Can't decide, will let you know.

Apart from that, I just want to meet people who share the same interests as I do, which includes my love for dank memes.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Drove 5100KM - 11 cities, 3 states, in 3 weeks along the pacific coast (USA).

Drove 2000+KM around the United Kingdom (11 cities/3 countries) in 10 days.

Not sure if this is considered "amazing", maybe more of a "oh okay, that's cool", but for my undergraduate thesis, I ran a study about Tinder users in Malaysia.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach: I can teach you how to speak/write in English, Malay, and to a certain extent Arabic. Also, I can help proofread any of your writings (academic/non-academic)

Learn: Learn the host's native language + culture + food (anything really!)

Share: My sense of humor + my dank meme collection

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

What I can offer apart from teaching another language/editing services is to share my life stories + a listening ear + my meme collection (this is like the third time I've mentioned this, I don't even know what to say for myself). Also, I love to clean up (it's very therapeutic, haha)
