✨Welcome to my profile!
My name is Fatma and for more than 10 years I've been teaching microbiology at the university along with doing so many freelancing hustles on the side.
I would describe myself as a safe, responsible, reliable, open minded person.

As human beings we are instinctively wired for connection and belonging and i wholeheartedly believe that and would love to normalize the fusion between different cultures perpetuating the idea that we're more similar than we are different! You'll see that when you enter my home and see my family.

I know the concept of Couchsurfing is to help travelers with a balance between spending less money and befriending locals. So let's get to know a bit about each other's backgrounds so that we both feel more safe around one another. I'm okay with not hanging out or hanging out but it depends on my job as I'm not always available. You can't treat the house as a hostel though, in this case it would be better if you look for another place.

Here are some house rules you have to follow:

1. Before you come over, it's very important to know that I expect you to respect our culture and customs with openness and no negativity or judgements.

2. NO SHOES INSIDE the house. Please take your shoes off once you enter, and don't forget your flipflops.

3. I expect you not to be messy. Leave the room as clean and tidy as you found it. Make your bed in the morning, pickup after yourself as you go and organise your belongings/luggage before you leave.

4. I have no problem with you using anything inside the house. You can use my kitchen, do your laundry, just please be cautious and most importantly, clean up after yourself if you used something.

5. I am not a tour guide or anything, but i can help you figure out your trip and put a program in place whenever I can. I'm constantly very busy with work and not always available to hangout, so please plan to tour independently. If I'm available and have the time and opportunity, I'd love to take you all over my city to see different parts of Cairo and it's local lifestyle.

6. My aim out of this is for you to be in peace and enjoy your stay with nobody exploiting you by any means in my city just because you're a tourist, not on my watch! I would gladly help you with anything that you may need.

Accomodation:

For females♀️: I have one private room in my family home with a double bed that we can share or we can arrange a suitable layout for you. No worries.

For males♂️: I will be asking a brother of mine if they can host you in their room and then get back to you before I accept your request.
