I am Athirah. I'm an avid solo traveler, architecture graduate. Passionate about humanitarian architecture, displacement and human rights. I am currently visiting every country that I can in order to get to know different culture, languages, meet new and amazing people in this interesting and somehow complex world. I am happy to share the local life in the country that I am living. I am a pescatarian. I am not a party girl, I don’t drink alcohol, don’t smoke, don't do any kind of drugs but I like to get to know ppl and explore! Looking forward to meet nice and interesting people and to share travel experiences together.

Ps If you are looking for a girlfriend, you are definitely on the wrong website reading the wrong profile. I am not interested!this app/platform are for travelers with the mindset to gain new friends. PLEASE DO NOT use this app like it is tinder thinking you’re going to get laid, quicky dates or for hookups !

I sometimes travel with my boyfriend on my trips. However, he doesn't have a couchsurfing account.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to meet people who wants to hang out, show me their city in exchange of mine, have interesting conversations about traveling, life, travel tips and hacks. It is also nice to build good long lasting friendship here.
