Namstay, Hello, Hola, Bonjour, Nin hao, Privet, Salve, Ola, Asalaam alaikum ....

Uttam is a 21-year-old boy who left his study and college to discover the world and has seen the world beyond media and what we read in books.
It has been 1 year of traveling.

Hey, This is Uttam from West India. I am a full-time traveler, I like to go to crazy places!

Currently, my mission is complete all World trips by hitchhiking.
I hitchhiked more than 3600 km.

Currently, I am in India 🇮🇳.

I am always looking to meet new people from all over the world, and enjoy learning a different language and culture.

Being a curious boy I talk a lot.
I am super social when I travel. I talk with whomever I'm sitting next to on the bus. I chat with vendors. I banter with people while waiting for a train. I ask for directions even when I'm pretty sure I know where I'm going. The more people you talk to, the more people learn about your journey.

Everyone who meets me tells me that you are very brave but the fact is that I am not brave, I trust people and just use a little bit of courage to start with.

Well, I also Started making videos in May 2022, Backpacker Uttam is my YouTube Channel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

#️⃣ If I hang out with the same friends, how can I get the new idea and inspiration?

#️⃣ I will experience a new culture from the inside and see the things which are not even in Wikipedia or travel books.

#️⃣ Couchsurfing liberated me from my fears of traveling alone and getting lonely because I knew that if I went, I would be guaranteed to meet new people.

#️⃣ I will break out of my comfort zone, and do and try new things that I never thought I would.

#️⃣ Making new friends and sometimes making a new animal friend.

#️⃣ Couchsurfing is incredibly safe, with Couchsurfing, you do know who you are staying with. You talk to them beforehand and read all about them from their former surfers.

COUCHSURFING MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU IF YOU:

#️⃣ Have a high-stress personality and don’t like improvising.

#️⃣ Have difficulty with social situations and meeting new people.

#️⃣ Need a lot of privacy.

#️⃣ Aren’t easily accepting of different lifestyles or belief systems.

Be a generous guest.
Be a compassionate host:)
