I was born and raised in India (Ahmedabad, Gujarat). I moved to US in 2015 and have stayed in Texas and California.

Biomedical engineer by profession. Love working for biotech company cause it is fulfilling and I think I’m helping save lives.

I love meeting and connecting with new people. I also enjoy trying out new activities. Love exploring new places and food. If you’re looking for a buddy to go to a new place or try new activity or need a plus one - count me in!

Always thought you need lot of savings to be able to travel. But I’m learning travel is not something you just do when you retire and have a big account. It’s about small things- it’s about exchanging culture and experience with new person. It’s about enjoying it as a local and not just being in a hotel chain at a new location.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling like a local and using this app for my next travel - so I can learn more about the culture, place and people. As well as meet people when they are here in California and share my stories.
