About Me

My biggest aspiration is to travel the world, set foot on as many countries' soil as I can, and on all 7 continents. I see myself as adventurous, and tho afraid at first, id always go through with anything that is thrill seeking. I love camping and hiking, though I've only been on short day hikes, and camping in the desert. I hold an advanced diving license, as well as an enriched air, and the deepest I've dove is 32 meters, wishing to work on my deep diver's license to try and swim deeper. The longest time I've spent on a mountain climb couldn't have passed an hour, but definitely want to give actual climbing a shot. Im a visual arts student in my junior year at the American University in Cairo, waiting to graduate then hope to be off to see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im essentially on counchsurfing to meet new people from around the world, those that can inspire me, and hope to inspire them in return. Living with my parents so unable to host anyone at this time, but hope to be hosted when I do actually start to travel. I also love my country and the many wonders it holds, and find it to be a great pleasure to be able to show people around.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to pretty much anything, open to most music genres, including Indie, Rock, Alternative, and Hiphop among others. some of the artists I love include The Arctic Monkeys, Kendrick Lamar, Oh Wonder, Aerosmith, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, and I can basically ramble on if you let me.
I am a known "movie maniac", absolutely love the cinema, and am able to watch movies of all genres non-stop. but beware, I tend to look at films from a slightly more technical view, so id be rambling on about the editing or the cinematography etc. Series I love include Harry Potter, Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, and its pretty difficult for me to pick favorites, chances are if you ask me about it, I would've seen it, and would love to talk about it.
Reading is a different thing for me, it takes me away to worlds created by the authors in my mind, if I find a good book I can finish it in a day or two, the challenge is finding a good one. I only enjoy fiction, mostly fantasy, Currently reading Les Miserable and loving it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't think I've done anything pretty amazing yet, but I do aspire to... camping in the desert is one of my favorite things to do, and I think it is pretty awesome to be honest. So is diving in general, I feel like they really give you perspectives on life.
