Hello my name is Aisha, nice to meet you!

First of all I am a vegan and have been vegan for about three years now (don't be scared I'm not judgmental I promise).

Some things that I love:

Trying new places to eat - I love going to vegan restaurants and trying new food! But sometimes I do get overwhelmed if there's too many vegan options (can't order everything now, or can I?).

Photography - I love capturing the most beautiful landscapes at the most ungodly times I must say (lol). I am an early riser and always enjoy watching and capturing the sunrise from a new place. I sometimes like shooting people but mostly stick to nature photography. Being from Vancouver B.C., I like discovering the lesser known places and will drive a couple of hours out just to get out of the busy touristy areas.

Hiking - With that said I have no problem hiking up a mountain at two in the morning just to capture the few rays of morning light or even those colorful sunsets! I hike a lot because it makes me happy and it keeps me in shape because I don't like the gym (yes I get fed up with routines.) I am constantly hiking because I basically live around the mountains and there's enough beautiful hikes around for a lifetime worth!

With that in mind I just enjoy the small things in life and am not materialistic at all. I have a strong sense of self and am constantly always working on myself. I love yoga and am learning how to incorporate meditation into my daily life.

Experiencing new places is a form of meditation to me, since every place or person I meet contains different energies that you I feel drawn to, which can help heal/enlighten or give me some sort of insight (based on my past experiences, might be different from you, let me know if you feel the same way!).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am just starting to enjoy solo travel and have gained many new insights from my recent most memorable trips.

Everyone is always so shocked whenever they hear that I travel alone sometimes as they cannot comprehend how I meet all the amazing people that I talk about or are always asking me if I ever get lonely! (maybe because I'm a female) But I don't care about what everybody thinks. I think everyone has a misconception about solo travel; its not at all bad as it sounds!

Upon getting many recommendations from my friends, I have decided to try it out - heck why not if it means meeting more cool travelers out there with great stories!

When I travel I like to be like the locals and experience everything as if it was my own home. I feel like this is a great way to meet new people and take home some great takeaways and lessons that I've learned.
