Born in Islamabad, raised in Karachi, spent a reasonable amount of years in Lahore, lived in UAE and Oman for a few months; I have spent most of my life moving around. Trying to break out of the monotony of my working life and explore new horizons. I have not traveled outside of Pakistan since almost 6 years now, but hoping to change that in the coming months :)

I enjoy reading, listening to music, watching movies/TV shows, cooking and interacting with people from different cultures and walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends with people from across the globe, exchange cultural views and other ideas about life. I would love to meet people visiting or even discovering my country Pakistan, and to have some company while discovering new places.
