From India, currently living in Linz, Austria, working as a researcher. In the meanwhile, I also enjoy spontaneous travel, books, sports, movies & TV, food, and snorkeling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling a bit of Europe while pursuing my studies here. I heard from one of my friend about the amazing and open minded community of couchsurfing. I really enjoy traveling with others and meeting new people of different cultures... it's all a learning experience :)

I would like to try couchsurfing to visit some new cities, as well as to host as much as possible, as a payback to the community.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - mostly Indian, ghazals
Movies - really long list

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo trip through Romania and Bulgaria without internet

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge of science, maths, cultures and experiences I had so far while traveling. I would like to learn the local way of life people have in different parts of the world - local cultures, cuisine, etc. Also, it would be amazing to know and pick up some new hobbies or interests while traveling, or hosting.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would like to do cultural exchanges - I have found a lots of people having interests and incorrect notions about many aspects of Indian culture. I can cook some Indian dishes - so far everyone I have met loves Indian cuisine.
