Resumen
Sobre mí
I study neuroscience, and in particular how the brain's connections work. I like saying I'm a brain electrician. Recently I've been traveling more often, helping expand the borders that have been built up in my mind over time. I went to Tokyo and Singapore most recently and really enjoyed that experience. I'm originally from India though it's difficult for me to tell that I am. I love meeting new people and enjoy listening to and learning about the stories we create though our time here.
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
I intend to travel more often and I really love meeting people of different cultures and engaging with them (to the best of my empathy). Cultural nuances are fascinating to me - you and I have a genuinely different view on the social realities of this world! Let's figure out what they are.

Música, películas y libros
It's hard for me to say one or two things here but my favorite music definitely includes creations by Tame Impala, Steve Reich, Bonobo, U2 among an eclectic rest. Movies, I've been deeply moved by Princess Mononoke, its characters are some of the most wonderful nuanced I've ever experienced alongside a story with choices to be made that really engage with the subject. As well as the Matrix, as my childhood and my thinking were deeply impacted by the movie. I would never have experienced the philosophical questions they posed had they not made it an action movie that everyone could get into.
As for books, Ramamchandran's Phantoms of the Brain literally changed my life and moved me in the direction of neuroscience. Kandel's autobiography and Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom also come to mind.
Algo increíble que he hecho
I found that the brain's memory systems operate on really macro level networks. I thought that was pretty amazing (for me).
