Overview
About Me
I work in the humanitarian field, moving between places and realities, learning from people more than from books.
Alongside that, I practice photography — not as a hobby, but as a way to approach people. In the Algerian Sahara, I spend time in remote places, meeting individuals whose lives are rarely seen. Photography, for me, is a quiet way to connect, to listen, and to understand.
I’m deeply drawn to the desert. There is something there — silence, vastness, a kind of truth — that brings me back to what is essential.
I’m also passionate about art in all its forms. Not just to consume it, but to feel it, question it, and sometimes lose myself in it.
I don’t travel to collect places. I travel to experience, to slow down, and to meet people beyond appearances.
Here to share simple, real moments — conversations, stories, and perspectives.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Not just to find a place to sleep — that would be missing the point.
I’m here for the unexpected: conversations that last longer than planned, people who change the way you see things, and moments you can’t organize in advance.
My work already takes me to places most people don’t go. Couchsurfing adds something different — a human door in unfamiliar cities.
I like the idea that a stranger can become a story, and sometimes even a friend.
Also… I trust local people more than any travel guide.
