From being an exchange student in a foreign country at the age of sixteen to being made redundant on my very first job at the age of nineteen due to the company going bankrupt, and meeting my fiancé right here on Couchsurfing - life never fails to disappoint.

I do love how things keep on taking twists and turns, though. I am taking things one at a time and enjoying the ride.

Right now, I'm in Berlin, working as an investor and growth manager at an early-stage company, and enjoying this vibrant city and start-up hub!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One, if not my favorite thing in life is stories. I love listening to them, telling them, and everything around the wonderful bond that humans can create by simply sharing.

I am here to bring the world closer by breaking stereotypes, learning about the world, and myself. I want to know your stories and share mine - that makes me feel alive most!

Interests

I love audiobooks, learning new things, lemon tea, bakeries, people who make me laugh, people who make me think, middle eastern food, Thai food, live music, phychology and soooo many other things I cannot wait to discover and share
