I love exploring the path less traveled and meeting new people while doing so. I live in Boston right now where I insist on biking for my commute even in the snowy winters. I love adventurous solo traveling but deepy appreciate the slow group travel with friends and family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet and talk to the residents of the places I am visiting, let the on ground perspective of how life looks like. I prefer that more than a sterile hotel environment.

Interests

I love cycling (endurance and commute) and have recently started camping. Sometimes I combine both and go bikepacking. I also have a knack for making lame puns.

Music, Movies, and Books

I use songs as a way to learn languages, so my playlist is a Frankenstein's monster. Currently the list is dominated by Latin American songs, but is often puncutated with Russian folk, Bollywood, Nordic and German metal among others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once biked 1000 kilometers in 7 days from my university to my family's house in another state.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Language practice if you're into that (Fluent in English, Hindi, Marathi; Conversational in Russian, French, German). I make some good cocktails too. Can accompany that with some Indian (or other cuisine) food.
