I'd subscribe to Nebula, not Netflix :) I work as a climate scientist, I have causes I deeply care about and I will definitely go on long rants about documentaries. Anti-capitalist (at least the neoliberal version of it), mostly busy plotting mutinies or gardening.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE SENDING ME COUCH REQUESTS:
This is not a free hotel service. If you have no references, or a boring profile and you leave me a message that basically tells me your only interest is in getting free accomodation (or in creeping me out), please save yourself and me some time and don't bother asking because I WILL decline. This is a place to make friendships, understand other people's experiences and learn about the world. If you think these are surface level statements, then you haven't experienced enough of life yet, so again, don't bother asking. If you want a hotel, book a hotel.

For those of you who are here for the right reasons:

I've learned so much thanks to this platform and I want to be able to share that with more people. I like having deep conversations with people I meet, I want to know that there are thinkers around and I'm always eager to learn about you and your experiences.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Marine research expedition across the Atlantic Ocean on board the Polarstern, one of the world's largest icebreakers. Only Indian selected for it. I love the oceans!

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I can teach you to play the piano and sing weird campfire songs. :D

I'd like to learn whatever you're willing to teach and share whatever needs to be shared :)

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

A great time and great conversation, so many stories and very extremely lame puns and jokes that you'll be begging me to stop. Oh and I will mostly always find a place in your city/town that you might not have seen before.
