ABOUT ME
I have been living in the United States for the past 7 years where I built great friendships, met amazingly diverse and smart individuals, had terrific experiences, and got the opportunity to travel the world! I have recently returned to India as a Clinton fellow with the America India Foundation to work with a social enterprise based in Delhi. I hope to continue building great friendships, meaningful relationships, and learn from people and cultures I come across in my travels!
Small and simple things make me happy. I have discovered the joy of travel and I hope to pursue more of it. I am good at cooking Indian curries, telling interesting stories, discussing love, life, politics and everything in between!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can host,take my guest around to lesser know/ non-touristy places when I am free,make great Indian food for my hosts,share my experiences.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I couchsurfed in an off the grid cabin with no electricity or running water, slightly outside Fairbanks, Alaska, when I went there to experience Aurora Borealis! I couchsurfeed on a sailboat in Portalns, Maine! My first couchsurfing experience in Puerto Rico, cemented my belief in the general goodness of strangers in this world!
