Hello! My name is Ali Massoud. I'm originally from Egypt but I live in the United States now. I speak Arabic (and I'm working on French).

I'm a senior at the University of Alabama at Birmingham studying international relations. In my free time I like wandering about art museums, singing karaoke with my friends, and taking naps.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, and who better to show me around a city than the locals?
