About Me

I'm half Turkish, half Egyptians born and raised in Egypt/Cairo, then I moved to Turkey to continue my education, currently study industrial engineering in YTU in Istanbul and work as a coding instructor in an NGO called Re:Coded where I teach people various topics related to web development, at the same time I'm working as a Front end developer in a company called Akinon.
I like to meet people from different cultures and background, learn some of their language and taste their signature dishes, I enjoy cooking (depending on the mood :) ).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well I haven't traveled much in my life, I only
been to 3 countries but now since I'm working remotely I feel like it's my chance to travel and see other countries get to know their culture and taste their food, ever since I moved to Istanbul I got exposed to different cultures and cuisines which I really enjoyed
