My name is Nour, I am from Tunisia and currently living in Sapporo (North Japan), and studying at Hokkaido University.
I love traveling around the world, discovering different cultures etc... I want to make friends from different cultures and backgrounds and enjoy my life as much as I can ! I'm a dreamer, but I don't want to dream my life: I want to live it without regrets.
I want to discuss with you about life, your background, your culture, your experiences etc... Besides travelling, my biggest passion is art. I draw, paint and write ( in French). I am also very passionate about pure sciences (mainly physics) and philosophy !

I believe that who does not travel does not know the value of men.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from all around the world. I love the exchange of human experiences. I understand that some people use CS to save money, hosting you is a pleasure but if you are not interested in discussing and sharing experiences, I may not be the right host for you ^^'

Same for surfing, if I am hosted by someone, I would love to share human experiences, maybe cook together, debate (I LOVE debating), visit some places together...

I participate quite often to Couchsurfers meetups too.
