About Me
I am a motivated and ambitious young professional from Iraq, holding a degree in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Baghdad. I am passionate about personal and professional growth, constantly seeking opportunities to develop my skills and expand my knowledge.
I have a strong interest in travel and cultural exchange, driven by my desire to explore diverse communities and learn new languages. My goal is to contribute to meaningful projects, particularly in fields like communication, management, and organization, through volunteer work or professional engagements.
Sports and fitness are also essential parts of my life. I actively participate in activities like football and gym workouts, which help me maintain a healthy balance between body and mind. With a keen interest in making a positive impact, I strive to excel in my chosen fields and embrace new challenges that come my way
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
