I am a naturalist and wildlife researcher and enjoy backpacking. I work as a wildlife conservationist with WWF-India, studying wild elephant and human behaviour in remote northeast India.

I love immersing myself in different cultures; sharing experiences, beers, and knowledge!

I hope that you are willing to share your couch with me and i can return the favour.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and get to understand the diverse world that we live in better.

I believe that meeting people and connecting with them is an important and integral part of being on the road- it's just so much fun to see a place from a local's perspective!
