About Me

I am a student at Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. I like meeting new people from different places and sharing experiences and stories with each other and learning from each other. I am interested in learning about different cultures and languages. I like exploring new places. I am enthusiastic about different culture, design, food and social practices.

Looking forward to interacting with some of the best and enthusiastic individuals on this platform ✌🏻

Teach, Learn, Share

Feel free to ask anything about the local culture, I will be more than happy to help you. 😊
