I'm an 🇺🇸 American 🇺🇸 living in Cairo, Egypt 🇪🇬.
I grew up in LA and the Bay Area. I moved to Vegas for high school and once again in September of 2001. Vegas is my home. I love the desert, and that is 1 big reason why I love Egypt 🇪🇬 so much.

I was verified on Couch Surfing prior to Covid 19.
I'm not a fan of social media. I have a Facebook and YouTube account. I don't have Instagram or Twitter. I have Whatsapp and Telegram.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friend from Algeria stayed with me and had me sign up. I enjoy to meeting and hanging out with people from all over the world.

Interests

Every opportunity I had free, I used it on hiking and mountain climbing in Las Vegas Red Rock, Mt. Charleston, Big Bear, and Zion National Park. I'm a sports fan. Lakers, Angels, Flyers, Bears, Michigan Wolverines, Al Ahly (Egyptian soccer ⚽️)
I enjoy swimming in the ocean, sea, lakes, rivers and pools.

Once a month in Egypt 🇪🇬, I travel solo for about 2 to 4 days to different parts of Cairo or to a different region in Egypt. I travel like a local using tuk-tuks, micro buses, trains, metro (subway) city/government buses or private buses like Go-Bus. I don't use the white taxis as they try to hustle the foreigners. I use Uber (especially Uber-Scooter) or In Drive.
