Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hey! My name is Haya, I’m newcomer here in Toronto, been through a lot of adventures in Middle East, which I would be happy to share with you!

I’m a feminist, queer, writer as well, since I’ve spent the summer working up to 12 hours sometimes, I desperately need a vacation, only have these couple of days before starting school at University of Toronto, if you honor me with having me in your place, will take you a trip with the most delicious food from different cuisines in Middle East, I’m a line cook as well, love to cook for others :)
What else I can offer? Hmm positive vibes and a lot of stories about my refugee journey from 2012 till now!
