Hi I’m Bilal, I’ve lived most of my life between France and the United States and I’m currently studying as an undergrad at Stanford University.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I’ve traveled a lot, and my best experiences have always been staying with friends and family or camping in groups. Being in a group, whether it be with locals or fellow travelers, people you know or people you don’t, gives a completely different twist to discovering a new place. It’s with global networks like Couchsurfing that we can foster communities of mutual generosity, learning, and discovery!

Intereses

I play table tennis, and I also love playing most team sports. I play jazz and rock guitar.
I spend most of my time reading fiction, philosophy, economics, and anything else that I can find, and talking with anyone about what makes them passionate.

Probably the most amazing place I’ve visited is Bali, Indonesia. Some absolutely beautiful landscapes, a fascinatingly different culture, many cool temples to visit, and lovely people.
