Hi folks! I’m a Bangladeshi-New Yorker who appreciates and is curious about most things and all cultures.

I enjoy traditional food (street food!!), off-the-beaten-path neighborhoods, cultural music (open-mics, underground concerts!), and living like a local in new cities! Please show me around your favorite neighborhood :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals, learn about people and their stories

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

And continue to do—manage to get sand in my AirPods… always.
Mastered how to use the semicolon; maybe?

I want to learn how to live more freely, be more silly, embrace life fully with and for its uncertainties

My love for friendship, connection, people and conversations
