Hi, I’m Ali, a civil engineer with a deep passion for discovering new places and connecting with people from all walks of life. I’ve had the privilege of experiencing a wide range of cultures, which has significantly broadened my perspective on the world.

I thrive on traveling, immersing myself in different cultures, and engaging in meaningful conversations. Whether it’s sharing a meal or wandering through the streets of a new city, I love building connections and exchanging ideas. My friends often describe me as laid-back, open-minded, and naturally curious about the world around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, Couchsurfing isn’t just about a place to crash—it's about diving headfirst into new cultures and building meaningful connections. I’m all about the magic of cultural exchange, and Couchsurfing is the perfect way to meet incredible people, swap stories, and see the world through a different lens. It’s about making memories, not just ticking off destinations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m into a variety of music genres like classical, bluegrass, live jazz, reggae, flamenco, fado, and even bagpipe tunes. My top 3 classical pieces are: Waltz No. 2 by Shostakovich, Spring Waltz by Chopin, Gymnopédie by Satie.
Not much of a party person, but I enjoy good company and meaningful conversations.
When it comes to books, I’m drawn to psychology, biographies, and political topics.
