Bio

Hi, I'm Zamzam. As a Somali Muslim girl who values family, culture, and personal growth. Growing up, I was raised with so much love and a close sense of community that has shaped the way I view the world. As I get older, I realize I actually haven't seen that much of the world. So, I plan to change that and explore more. Right now, college is a big part of where that curiosity comes from. I'm a second-year student who loves big campus life, especially the energy that comes from being surrounded by people and food. When it comes to describing myself, I sometimes draw a blank because I know myself so well that it's hard to put it into words. My friends would describe me as funny, talkative, and genuinely cool to be around, and say I bring good vibes wherever I go. I love movies, and while I enjoy all genres, nothing beats a cozy movie night with a superhero film. They are classic, comforting, and always a win. Naturally a planner, I like knowing what the plan is ahead of time, but lately I have learned to slow down and become more patient. Curious and open-minded, I am always looking ahead. One of my biggest goals is to see the world and experience as many places and cultures as possible. I also love watching dramas and recently started learning Chinese. Learning new languages excites me, and I plan to continue exploring more in the future.
