About Me

I am working as AI/HPC Consultant in one of the universities in Germany. I travel whenever I get a chance and I think traveling is the best part of life. Travel provides a set of obvious novelties: new tastes; new currencies; new transport; climate; a different view from the window.

But just being somewhere different doesn’t make you an explorer; in order to get that badge, you need to set foot outside your comfort zone, step away from the hotel, the package tour, the guidebook — and look with your own eyes.

Also, I'm a big fan of football and I love to discuss all the football leagues.

P.S. Travel for travel’s sake. Explore for Heaven's sake.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a traveler and I love meeting new people especially with a similar mind and vibe. I believe that's totally worth the time and it is always nice exploring inner personalities. Couchsurfing provides an opportunity to meet such people while traveling.

Remember that every good friend was once a stranger. See you soon :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't read much nowadays because I'm busy with my thesis. However, my favorite book is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I have so many books to read once I'm done with my thesis.

Sometimes I listen to music as well and that too in different languages like English, French, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi, Arabic, and Turkish. Some of my favorite singers are Adele, Shakira, Celine Dion, Fairouz, Nancy Ajram, Enrique, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra.

My all-time favorite movies are The Shawshank Redemption, Braveheart, and The Dark Night. I was a big fan of Game of Thrones until they managed to f*** it in last season. There's nothing called "Flawless" in film industry.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled to 7 countries in 15 days. (Paris, France - Antwerp, Belgium - Amsterdam & Rotterdam, Netherlands - Berlin & Hamburg, Germany - Copenhagen, Denmark - Stockholm, Sweden - Oslo, Norway).

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn about new cultures and languages. I can teach you how to sound French without even learning French ;) You just need to remember a few words. :p :) And English of course :p

I also love to share my travel experiences. Apart from that, if you're interested we can discuss all day about Artificial Intelligence, Robots, and stuff like that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Coffee, walk, and a lot of friendly discussions. I can also show you around if I'm not busy.
