About Me

I'm a wanderer, a brain picker and a panglossian. I cannot stop learning about myself, people and the world. I always end up stepping outside of my comfort zone and I freak out half of the time :) But, I cannot imagine any other way of living. We are all on a journey of self-discovery and love and I am in this phase where I feel like I have to keep pushing my limits to keep growing into a better version of myself.

Professionally, I've been an English Teacher at university, a copy writer at a branding agency and a digital content creator at a local Egyptian non-profit specialized in improving the quality of public education. I have written articles online, created content for websites, and translated lots of texts from English to Arabic and vice versa.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and potentially explore the city with them.

Sadly, I cannot accept guests currently in my home in Phoenix, AZ because of two reasons: I have a flatmate who won't encourage it and I don't have a couch! But, I would be happy to receive you in Cairo, Egypt next year. I live 15 minutes away from the Great Pyramids of Giza.
