About Me

22. I lived in 5 countries so far - grew up in Morocco, studied in the United States and South Africa, and worked in Rwanda and Ghana.
Things that give me life: - staircases, balconies and rooftops
- Sufi music and poetry, yoga
- Afrobeats
- waters (rivers, seas, oceans)
- dancing, especially with other people
- new friendships (when you know it's been real!!)
Things I'm passionate about: - social justice
- hiking
- martial arts
- really, anything Moroccan (spirituality, philosophy, music especially)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems truly perfect for what I am looking for in traveling: experiencing life as other people do, learning about local culture and behaviors, but also and especially make new, amazing friends and have lots of fun!
We have so much to learn from each other and to exchange, I can't wait! Be it languages, food/cuisine, dance, music, politics and spirituality (if you're keen), and lots and lots of laughter.
