I'm a male 22 years old. Currently studying software engineering. I grew up in Morocco and later moved to Finland. I have many hobbies, including reading both fiction and non-fiction, writing about almost anything (though mostly about my day-to-day life), jogging, and, more recently, I've developed an interest in bouldering. I also enjoy listening to music a lot, watching movies and tv shows.

I'm generally quiet and though I enjoy my alone time I like having engaging conversations (or even small talk) with people of all walks of life.

I don't smoke and I don't drink.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like traveling, and making new friendships along the way. I'm still very new to CS and I'm looking forward to meeting and connecting with like-minded people through this platform.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is really broad and diverse. I enjoy so many genres that it’s impossible to describe in just a few words. Here’s my Spotify profile if you want to get a sense of what I enjoy listening to https://open.spotify.com/user/31en6fnolq2yn3rfabboqtkaplu4?si=4ddcdf517f8d42a8

My favorite movies include: Requiem for a dream, Memento, Bicycle thieves, True romance, Trainspotting, 12 angry men, Amadeus, In the mood for love...

When it comes to books, I haven't read nearly as much as I wanted, but a few favorites are:
Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
East of the Mediterranean by Abdul Rahman Munif

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven’t yet done anything like visiting extraordinary places or attempting extreme challenges, but one thing I have done, and consider quite amazing, is making a conscious effort to improve myself in different areas, such as my social life, sports, and overall mindset. It’s been the best decision I’ve made, and it laid the foundation for a healthier lifestyle.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been programming for the past 4 years, and I really enjoy sharing my love for programming and software with others.

I also have an active interest in learning - just about anything really - so I always find it interesting when someone shows me what they've been learning.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d be glad to cook, share meals, and help with any housework. I’d also be glad to take part in indoor or outdoor activities with my host and share some enjoyable experiences :)
