It is always difficult for me to present myself but I am doing so because Andrea asked me to :)

It is difficult because I have been blessed by the ability of embracing everything, hence, it is challenging to find adjectives that define myself. However, I believe that this state of mind was fundamentally built on my passion for travel and discovery. My father planted the seeds of wander in my child soul and since then I never skept a beat for anything but the beauty of the world and the wonders it has to offer. Ironically, my foreign travel experience is very mediocre as I just got to travel abroad for the first time few months ago. However, the stories from around the world narrated by my international friends fed my hunger of discovery.

Lately, Jason Silva (if you don't know him and if you're interested in a shot of awe, I highly recommend you to google him up) defined what is to be a seeker. I never related to a definition as much as I did to this one and it goes like this :

To be a seeker is to be a restless mind
To be a seeker is to have a fire in the belly
To be a seeker is to be confined, consumed, agitated by curiosity
To be a seeker is to want to know the world, to want to map the world, to want to design, refine and augment the world
To be a seeker is to love science, inspiration, transformation, design, creativity,
To be a seeker is to question dogma
To be a seeker is to rage against the darkness, against the dying of the light
To be a seeker is to want to scramble the self and constantly upgrade it
To be a seeker is to understand we are beings made of language, we are alphabetic all the way down, we are made of code, DNA is software, DNA is language, we are made of language
To be a seeker is to want to author new language of being and to disclose new world-hoods
To not let go, to not surrender

Otherwise I am a senior engineering student from the one and only Morocco, named Zineb :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a global citizen who lives on the the ecstasy of meeting souls who share the same passion of travel and find pleasure in discovering the stories of world travelers. I believe CS is a wonderful platform to achieve this.

Books: Novels and travel diaries.

Movies : All genres as long as it has an original plot :D But if I had to make a movie myself, it would certainly be something identical to Wes Anderson's !!
