I grew up in Fez, Morocco, in a family with 2 sisters and one brother. My parents always took us traveling and gave us this love for traveling. Once I take the road, I feel free and eager to learn new things, discover new places, and meet people. The best friends I made were while I was on the road. Travelling allows to discover and know myself as well. And I think, perhaps, that is why I travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I wanna meet locals, share moments, learn about their culture and lifestyle, and also, learn from them. Embrace our differences and realize how much we're alike. Help around, teach and be taught.

Interests

I like nature, and more specifically I like the desert. I go out often to visit the desert in Morocco. I enjoy the peaceful rhythm of life there. I like music and dancing. And I paint, I like painting desert landscapes, flowers, trees, and abstract.

My favorite books : The alchemist of Paolo Coelho, The little Prince of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Forty Rules of Love of Elif Shafak

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the languages I know, some traditional dishes from Morocco. Share my paintings and the music I know. And of course, learn about my hosts, their culture and their interests. And learn from whatever life has to offer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share moments, make dishes, music, paintings, laughter...
