I come from both Sudanese and American heritage, and was brought up in Maryland, USA. I went to high school in three different countries before returning to America, where I have lived in Missouri for 10 years during my adult life. Missouri is also where I met my best friends and my partner Nathan. I took one year for a residency program in Texas and have recently moved back to Missouri.
Those who know me would describe me as a vivacious dancer, great conversationalist, and exceptional listener. I love a good drink, live music and good energy.
I appreciate the opportunity to travel and the generosity I've received, and hope to return the same to fellow travelers and even my neighbors. I really love learning new languages and finding the commonalities between languages, foods, clothing and other aspects of culture.
Becoming a global citizen helps me relate more to those different than myself, as well as acknowledge pre-conceived biases.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To find cool events and meet awesome new friends! Especially as I branch out on a new chapter in my life.
I also really appreciate the local perspective and intimate introduction to a new city/nation.

教，学，和分享

I can teach Arabic and share things of the Sudanese, Arab and Black culture. I'd love to learn new dishes to cook and things of your culture.

Remember that Couchsurfing is about people and experiences, not just lodging. When you surf, don't forget to bring something to share: a gift, a food, a story, a skill!
