Hey everyone, I'm Aaryan. I graduated from Delhi University, but my journey has been anything but traditional. I've always been drawn to the arts, Culture, Storytelling and over the last four to five years, I've been exploring India's hidden corners—the kind of places you won't find on the usual tourist maps.

Along the way, I've had the chance to meet people from all walks of life, gaining a deeper understanding of their cultures and experiences.

During my four years in Delhi, I dove into the world of theatre, literature, and cinema, which further shaped my perspective.

After nearly six years of travelling and learning from diverse experiences, I felt the pull to return to my roots. In 2018, I decided to give back to my community by sharing the knowledge I'd gathered. That's when I started working with underprivileged rural kids, focusing on alternative learning methods. This led to the creation of the "School of Nature" concept, which aims to provide skill-based and Nature-based education.

To further this mission, we began building an eco-friendly space where travelers from around the world can come and share their skills with the rural community. This effort eventually grew into the Shrirampur Samvad Foundation.

Through the foundation, we've hosted over 100 travellers and have worked closely with the local community, striving to make a positive impact.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We all inhabit a single planet, and it is merely by chance that some of us are born in one place while others are born elsewhere. Our individual journeys may vary due to diverse circumstances, but we all share a common goal: to forge our own paths and shape our lives. I believe it is crucial to connect with people who have embarked on their own travels, to listen to the whispers of their inner voice. Travelers are akin to rivers, and being in their presence often evokes a sense of meditation and tranquility.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

“My travels have revolved around exploring the art and culture of remote societies, and it has been an incredibly exciting journey. What makes it truly exhilarating is that I never pre-plan my trips, embracing the uncertainty that comes with each adventure. It is through this spontaneity that I have learned valuable lessons and gained a wealth of knowledge. Every experience has been nothing short of amazing for me, and I continue to embrace the wonders that unfold during my travels.”

Teach, Learn, Share

Nature has been my greatest teacher, serving as both my school and university. I have learned everything from the embrace of nature, and I am eager to share the invaluable lessons it has imparted upon me. It is through nature’s subtle guidance that I have discovered a profound way of perceiving the world, connecting with its roots and gaining a deeper understanding of life’s wonders.
