About Me

Curious about the world and eager for adventure.

Currently based in New Cairo after finishing my study in France.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Started exploring Couchsurfing during my first solo hitchhiking trip from southern France to Germany in 2019. Those couchsurfing hosts i've met on the trip were so kind and interesting.

They have showed me a different facade of Germany in which i would barely be able to see if as a normal tourist. I've been touched by their complete trust on strangers and thats why when i was doing my internship in Paris, I've started hosting people too as a way to return the community.

Interests

🦵 Roaming in the city, thats how I've found many interesting bars and restaurants and graffitis in Paris;

🍺 Beers and learn to order beers in each language

🐶 Food especially Chinese food cuz they're the best

Music, Movies, and Books

I like hip-pop music, Jay-z, Logic, J.cole, ASAP Rocky; Nekfeu, Oxmo Puccino...

I love watching stand-up comedies in all languages that i know
🇺🇲 Trevor Noah,Russell Peter, Jo Koy, Taylor Tomlinson, Shaquille O'Neal;
🇨🇵 Paul Mirabel, Redouane Bougheraba, Kyan Khojandi,Hakim Jemili, Gad Elmaleh;
🇨🇳 卡姆,付航,Storm Xu,杨笠.

As for movies, big fan of Richard Linklater : Before sunrise; Before sunset; Before midnight; Boyhood

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

∆ Made a speech with my lame french in the city hall of Alès(South of France) in my first year staying in France

∆ Asked by a busker to sing a Chinese song in front of the Opera of paris

∆ Volunteered to jump on the stage for one-minute improvised stand-up during a Chinese comedy club's open mic in Paris

∆ Accomplished several solo hitchhiking trips in Europe (France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Italy and Austria) of around 6000 KM

∆ Got invited to stay at stranger's house on the top of the mountains in the north of Italy after having a short conversation
