🌍 About Me

Hi! My name is Basil and I'm a curious traveler, storyteller, and friendly soul based in Nairobi, Kenya. I love meeting new people from all over the world and sharing cultures, experiences, and great conversations over food, music, or a simple walk through the city.

I'm passionate about adventure, local history, and hidden gems that most tourists miss. Whether it's exploring Nairobi’s vibrant streets or escaping into nature, I’m always ready to show you the heart of my country—or learn something new about yours!

I consider myself open-minded, respectful, and reliable. I enjoy deep talks, spontaneous plans, and finding joy in the little things. My home is simple but welcoming, and I believe in creating genuine connections, not just offering a free place to stay.

🤝 Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in people over profit. Couchsurfing isn’t just about saving money—it’s about building community, learning from each other, and forming global friendships. Hosting or staying with someone gives you the kind of experience no hotel or tour guide ever could.
