I am an architect and Urban designer from Pakistan. I have experienced living in extremely diverse environments. I grew up in Saudi Arabia then moved to Lahore Pakistan in 2007. I studied architecture in Pakistan. I went for my Master's to Politecnico di Milano and did my Erasmus in Madrid. It was indeed the best experience of my life so far. I love to travel, meet new people, and know more about everything. I'm outgoing and a fun-loving person. I love pets, mostly cats... But I'm okay with a dog lurking around... I'm not sure about wild animals though... I drink at least 3 cups of tea plus 2 cups of coffee at times in 24 hours...

I like to talk about conflicts, politics, architecture, religions, and random stuff...

Self obsessions are a big turn-off for me... A BIG ONE:...

I am pretty easygoing and open-minded... I believe we are all human beings first... I don´t care about race, color, sexual orientation, religion, or any other differences that divide the world. I have done some solo travelling, which is pretty strange for someone coming from an extremely conservative society. I guess I am privileged to be blessed with an amazing, liberal and supportive family who takes pride in my independance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Shared experiences, knowing strangers, learning from locals (avoiding touristy mainstream stuff), and yeah, let´s be honest, we all couch surf to save some cash 😂
