Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like getting to know people. Listening to music. I like to cook.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have tried Couchsurfing three times when I was in Portugal in 2014. I visited Lisboa and stayed with an English teacher there for 2 days who was extremely hospitable and we are now good friends.

I also tried it again when I was in Porto city where I met a guy my age there who showed me around the city and we had a good time.

Third time was in Brussels where I met an Egyptian dude who works and lives there. He hosted me for 3 days where we managed to hangout on the first day and see the city. On the 2nd and 3rd day, he was busy, but I was with my friends most of the time who I met there and he joined us briefly on our final day since he was busy with work.

I have also hosted an American who became a friend at my place for a week when he was over in Cairo. We had so much fun and discovered places around Cairo.

It has been a pleasure being on this experience so far!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked in Aga Khan foundation for preserving art and architecture.

Been to many amazing places in Egypt that are breathtaking like diving in Sinai, Red Sea, visiting a whale preserve in Fayoum, and diving in lost city in Alexandria, seeing the temples of Luxor, and walking through Old Cairo, etc.

I really really like volunteer work and charity work. It's just another thing one has to experience to do something so little for someone and it means A LOT to them.

Teach, Learn, Share

Art and architecture. I like politics and history. I like cultures (sociology and anthropology). I am interested in astronomy and I like psychology as well. I read a lot. I like to listen to different types of music (anything meaningful dark or light is interesting to me).
