About Me

currently studying history and philosophy at an experimental university that takes us to a new country every semester ! Last year was Seoul and Hyderabad, this year starts in Berlin but can go many ways after that! (Nairobi, Tokyo, Accra +). One caveat to this is I generally need a pretty stable wifi connection to attend my seminars (basically glorified video calls with professors) so if your place has that or you know some good coffee shops or internet cafes nearby that'd be a great help! Will share what I can in return.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet passionate people and to be able to see places genuinely and authentically

Interests

  • philosophy
  • museum
  • world history
  • exploring cities

Music, Movies, and Books

Constantly changing and updating with new exposure. But would love some recs and can dish some out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving in Rosario, Argentina without understanding (any) of the instructions -- accompanied by the most graceful crash landing you can imagine ! (no physical injuries , just my pride + a glam full-body grass stain)

What I Can Share with Hosts

travelling stories, an extra body willing to go anywhere in your city, random convos on whatever topic has peaked my interest that week (currently -- the Terracotta warriors and Abstract Expressionism ) , English practice with an only slightly annoying American accent, Spanish conversation fit for a 5th-grader, mad dish-washing skills, and non-existent cooking skills (unless you count the microwave)

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Germany, Ghana, India, Mexico, Mozambique, Peru, Philippines, Scotland, South Africa, Spain, Zimbabwe

Countries I’ve Lived In

India, South Korea, Swaziland, United States
