ABOUT ME

Hey, thanks for checking out my profile! My name is Tahir, I'm 23 years old and currently living near Toronto, Ontario. Currently I'm employed as a Robotics Engineer for a company that specializes in industrial robots. Outside of work, I love learning as much as I can about technology and the world around me!

In regards to travel, so far I have not done much travelling outside of Ontario. Even the trips within Ontario were mostly work related. In the near future I hope to travel across Europe, and if I can afford it, I would love to see Asia as well!

Overall, I am a very open individual, if you have any questions, concerns, or comments, feel free to message me anytime!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing that I've seen is... nothing. During my travels from Toronto to Calgary by car, I drove through the Canadian prairies (Saskatchewan, and Manitoba). In these provinces the land is essentially flat as far as the eye can see. Travelling on the Trans-Canada highway, I was able to see in all directions for miles and miles with nothing obstructing my view. There was little to no traffic which allowed for a smooth coast at a fast speed.
Seeing vast areas of nothing came as a very blissful surprise to me as I've grown up in areas where buildings and people surround you at all times. Seeing nothing besides landscape put me in a very relaxed mood and the 8 hours of driving flew by. I highly recommend driving coast to coast in Canada for moments like this!

Teach, Learn, Share

Computers are my specialty and I've been helping people use them and learn about them for as long as I can remember.
I would love to learn how to do more creative things such as draw, write songs, sing or play an instrument!
