Hello! My name is Hager. I was born in Cairo and have lived in New York my entire life. I'm studying to be a journalist. I'm interested in anything and everything. I'm one of those people who want it all. I want to experience everything all at the same time. This can be overwhelming sometimes but I think t also makes me fun to be around. I hope so, anyway. I love walking a lot. I can spend hours in cafes and old antique shops or just sitting on steps outdoors. I love to dance and go on hikes!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm doing my first trip to Europe and I don't know anyone. I prefer to meet locals and other travelers than be by myself. I think it can provide me a rich experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Turkey with no money and not knowing a single soul there and I met a ton of people and had the best week of my life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to tell stories. I'm a journalist and I'm eager to learn. I'm always curious. I take risks. I'm not afraid of much. I think I'm an interesting person to hang out with if I do say so myself!
