Overview
About Me
Hello, I’m Ibrahim and my goal on Couchsurfing is to host people from all countries, so if you receive a message from me inviting you to Tanzania and be my guest in Tanzania, please do not be surprised.
I can describe myself as a people’s person but somehow, I get overwhelmed with big events/groups/gatherings so I prefer to meet 1-on-1 or in a very small group (3-4 people).
I’m open-minded to the core and I believe in global citizenship with no borders, that's why I don’t ask anyone’s age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, profession, origin, country, nationality as that’s trivial information. But what may be truly fascinating is to know you as a person, your passion in life, your amazing travel stories, your favorite food, your good times, and challenges in life.
I also respect time and don’t let anyone wait for me, so please respect my time too.
As Couchsurfing works on references, may I request you to add a reference as I see them as a collection of emotions, time-together, moments, connections, friends, places and memories.
I also prefer to add as a friend on Couchsurfing only after we met or surfed with each other.
If you are coming to Tanzania to look for work, I'll not be able to host you as job seekers may not have the traveling spirit and they may abuse the hospitality and generosity of a host.
So let’s meet and enjoy the good company and friendship.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Fantastic things are not things... but moments :) so let’s meet and i’ll tell those moments
What I Can Share with Hosts
Part of the fun is getting to know your host. A small gift shows your appreciation and can open up a warm conversation, especially if it’s a fun trinket from your hometown or the last place you visited. There are several ways you can give back to your host that wont cost you an arm and a leg. Things like cooking them a meal, bringing them a tasty treat from your own country, fill up their car with fuel if they’re driving you around, clean the house, help them in the yard, bring them a useful gift like toilet paper or washing powder – Couchsurfing hosts go through a lot of these things! Share your skills and teach each other something. This could be a song, a holiday tradition, sports advice, how to cook a meal from your country. If you know another language and your host seems interested, teach them a few words.
Talk about the places you’ve traveled, the customs back home, or just stories from your life. Ask your host questions about the local community, its history, and his own life. Personal and cultural exchange sets couchsurfing apart from a stay in a hotel, if you step up to the opportunity.
Respect house rules. Do your best to follow the instructions the host gives you, such as which entrance to use and when to keep the noise level down. Pay attention to your hosts habits as well, and imitate them if necessary. Don’t hesitate to ask questions or apologize when you make a mistake. A positive attitude goes a long way toward smoothing out minor slip-ups.
Be flexible and patient. If your host can’t be home to let you in during the day, find out when he or she can be there, and then find yourself something else to do for an afternoon. It costs nothing to be cheerful, enthusiastic, and appreciative of your host’s hospitality, and it can make a big difference in how your host see you and treat you
Be Clean. You’re staying in somebody’s house so it’s important to clean up after yourself as well as be hygienic. We all know what it’s like when you’ve been on the road for a while, perhaps it’s been a while since your last laundry load. Remember, nobody likes a stinky guest! Most hosts will let you do your laundry in their place. When I am hosting I always offer the washing machine and when I’m surfing I also always take them up on this offer if I’ve been traveling for a while. Also if you’re using the kitchen, make sure you clean up afterwards. And simple things like making your bed, not leaving your stuff sprawled everywhere, etc.
