Growing up in a multicultural circle in northern Nigeria, I've always wanted to travel the world and see the places some of my friends and neighbours came from. I love travel and I cherish cultural exchange. There’s a real difference between staying in a hotel and in someone’s home, that’s why I’m on Couchsurfing. If I had the choice, I’d always pick a couch over a luxury hotel. For me, it’s about the connection , stories and shared moments as much as it is about places. I've made friends in many countries and hope to make many more across the world.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I like traveling and want to meet new people along the way....when in new cities I get holed up in hotels and I don't like that, I prefer to get out and experience the city which is better when you're with the locals.
Music, Movies, and Books
Afro beats, techno, pop, rap and 80s mixtapes...
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I've been to the two ends of the African continent, the northern most tip at Cafe Angela in Tunisia and the southern most end at Cape of Good hope in South Africa. Visited four countries in a day with my couch surfing host. We did Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria and Germany in one day.
