Hi guys, my name is Hadi! I was a German and English teacher and have recently switched my career to social-help, while doing my schooling to become a holistic health Practitioner.

I am born and raised in Cologne, Germany, but spent about half of my life travelling the World for school and work, but now I am back in good old Köln, Germany! I love to cook, eat, play and listen to music, spend time in nature and laugh! I have been living with flat mates all around the world for many years, and I can say of myself to be a pleasant and neat housemate. Communication is key.

More about my past: I studied Conflict Resolution and Peace Studies in Boston. A couple of years of education I spent in Nepal, Bhutan, and India to learn about Himalayan Cultures. At the moment, I work on projects that aim to preserve the knowledge of indigenous people around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new to couch-surfing, but not to travelling the world. I have traveled a lot, slept on many couches, stayed with host families and have hosted many guests — one is sure to get a warm and nutritious meal at my place! Furthermore, I love having guests around, and I am looking forward to meeting you!
