I moved to Seattle from Gambia in 2008. Mainly to go to school but after living here for a couple of years, I realized the Pacific Northwest is in fact where I belong. I love pretty much everything outdoors it offers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel but I'm still going to school so I figured why not couchsurf to cut the expenses.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of music genres depending on what I'm doing. For movies I find myself watching Chinese movies all the time. I'll watch them either in Cantonese or Mandarin and read subtitles. Books are mostly computer related.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Earlier this year: I captained a team of 25 to train for 3 months and then we climbed the Columbia Tower(Seattle's tallest building). And while training, we raised money for the cure and treatment of cancer. I felt great doing that.

Teach, Learn, Share

You can't stop learning. It's fun! And the best way to remember what you've learned is to teach it to other people. And of course by teaching others, you're sharing :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can talk about the things I do and know. Computers, my adventure to the US, running and exercising, healthy nutrition, and how to stay healthy overall.
