About Me

Hello, Everyone
I am currently a student who is pursuing Masters in space science and technology I have lived in five different cities and states since I was born and grew up also I have been to 43 countries. Because of my family profession I have been travelling and living in different cities and this made me a traveler. Earlier ,I used to only travel to my hometown from my residential places in trains and it sparked the curiosity inside me to know people of different origin. I have been to many parts of India with my family but now as they are busy so I have decided to start exploring more. Travelling and exploring for me is also a part of learning as I will get to know different people, their perspective about certain things, also learn new habits and hobbies while experiencing them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So I figured out that I wanna know people and culture and for that I strongly feel the desire to live and experience it with some locals to understand it. According to me a tour guide or living in hotels cannot get me enough exposure to the life of locals and culture as it will be only about visiting famous places and coming back to hotels and sleeping. I do not want this and the other reason is obviously finances being a student I will need to travel in less and explore more so that my studies are not affected.
