I'm Arushi, a senior at Stanford University in California originally from New Delhi, India.

I grew up in a house of 15 kids - so I've seen all kids of rowdy imaginable.

I'm in general very curious about most things. I'm tiny, but I talk a lot.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I determine my love for cities based on the number of interesting people I get a chance to share my life with. I'm trying to also work on a travel app to increase the amount of serendipity in our lives.

兴趣

I’d love to share some local Indian artists with you and in exchange, hope that hosts can tell me about cool gigs (and maybe even join me)

I'm always with my camera (newly acquired equipment induces unbound enthusiasm). Know of any cool spots where I can get some good photos? Tell Me! I tend to prefer to focus on people. I've been to some pretty amazing places (i'm currently in Palestine teaching kids how to code here) so I have some cool photos to share.

I'm a techie. I'm studying Computer Science at Stanford, and in general hail the Bay Area/Silicon valley life.
