I have so much stuff going on in my life. I study engineering. I have a part-time job in the education field. I'm a member of my university's Formula racing team. and finally a freelance tutor at cool startup.
I enjoy discussion on different topics (Philosophy, politics, religion, etc...).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet the world !!!
I believe that exchanging cultures is most precious experience anyone could ever have.
Living together by sharing a room or house is the best way to exchange cultures.
Since I was a kid, I had the world map hanged in my room. It inspired my love of other cultures and drove my desire to travel and explore countries.
