About Me

I grew up in Tunisia, moved to Spain later. Then, one day, I quit a stable job in order to travel around the World since March 2016.

Destiny took me to Taipei where I'm settling for a while, learning Chinese before taking the road again :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Through Couchsurfing, I met fantastic people. It made traveling way more interesting.

Being hosted by locals was so enriching and now, that I have my own place, I want to return the favour to travellers who are looking for a place to stay in Taipei, Taiwan.
