About Me

I am a graduate student in science and health communications.
One thing I know for sure I was born to do is traveling. Besides seeing as much as I can of this amazing world, I love to learn- new skills, languages, cultures, history, science, music, instruments, juggling, sports and what not!
I also love meeting new people...as they are the best teachers and there is something to learn from everyone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love being a traveler not a tourist. I'd rather stay in one place for days and walk on the neighborhoods and see as much of the local life as possible rather than being in so many places for short-while and just seeing the tourist spots. So couchsurfing gives me the opportunity to find people who are ok with people like me and who don;t mind spending time with me or giving me a space in their homes and a glimpse into the local life.

Interests

it's a list and a long one, so I will go with the top ten:
1. Travelling.
2. Astronomy.
3. Other Natural Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Geology) & Maths.
4. Sports (F1, Soccer, Cricket, Tennis). I just love watching them, I suck at sports.
5. Adventure/outdoor pursuits (Trekking, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, all kinds of jumping and diving).
6. Biking and swimming.
7. Movies
8. Music (I can sing and play Harmonium. I want to learn Piano & Guitar)
9. Reading books, lots of them
10. Learning new stuff

Music, Movies, and Books

Too difficult to choose. Easier to say which I DON't like

Music: not a big fan of heavy metal or too much techno-fied music.
Movies: Don't like movies with romance as the primary plot, don't like stupid/cheap comedies and porn.
Books: Fictions that are predictable, non-fictions that are filled with wrong information or are limited to narrowed perspectives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am a very ordinary person, yet I am friends, real friends with some awesome people from all over the world... that amazes me. My family, my friends they love me so much...they are always there for me...without me having to put any effort...I must have done something amazing, right?
