I DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL SO PLEASE DON'T OFFER ME.

Please carefully review my profile before sending a request. I'm interested in understanding why you chose my profile. I tend to prefer accepting requests for a minimum of two nights because, to me, couchsurfing is about sharing experiences and getting to know each other's cultures, rather than just using a couch for a free stay.

I've relocated to Germany last year and I'm in the process of settling down here.

Please read house rules before sending me a request 🙏 Kindly don't send request if you don't have any reference.

Embarking on a journey of unlearning to relearn has been incredibly rewarding thus far. My travels have been a source of profound learning and growth, shaping me into who I am today. As a Tour Organizer, Travel Content Creator, and the First Pakistani Female Hitchhiker to venture across Pakistan in 2020, my journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. From hitchhiking in Turkey for almost two years to traversing from Turkey back to Pakistan, crossing borders along the way, I've embraced every adventure with passion and purpose.

Leaving behind my corporate job of 9 years, I sought to instigate change in society by organizing cultural, guided city, and trekking tours for girls throughout Pakistan. Over time, my business expanded to cater to families and couples, both domestic and international clients. My efforts have been recognized with numerous awards, celebrating my commitment to promoting a positive image of Pakistan through social media and organizing tours within the country.

Reflecting on my transformative experience in 2020, I am captivated by how it has reshaped the trajectory of my life. With unwavering determination, I embarked on a journey that challenged me to push beyond my limits. Have you ever pondered the privilege of taking risks? Only the privileged can afford to do so, yet it is through taking risks that we reap the greatest rewards. I feel immensely privileged that the universe chose me to embark on this risky journey, starting afresh.

Transitioning from my corporate life as a former banker, I was uncertain about the path ahead. However, with a steadfast belief in the law of attraction, I embraced the unknown with open arms. As the universe signaled my moment to move forward, I embraced the discomfort and the blessings it brought. After bidding farewell to my banking career, I embarked on a six-month hitchhiking journey across Pakistan, immersing myself in local communities and undiscovered landscapes.

During my journey, I actively promoted the empowerment of girls in Sindh through travel, challenging societal stigmas associated with female travel. In 2020, I pioneered the organization of all-girls tours across Pakistan, encouraging young women to embrace adventure and exploration.

Grateful beyond measure, I struggle to articulate the depth of my happiness. To those navigating different phases of life, I urge you to believe in yourselves. Trust that things will align in due time. Please include "jiyesindh" in your request to signify that you've read my profile in its entirety.

I document my travel adventures on my YouTube Channel, Facebook blog, and Instagram, inviting others to join me on this incredible journey of self-discovery and exploration.
