About Me

Since 2017 I've been working with Prashant Kumar in leading a series of projects for peace, sustainable living and community wellbeing as we travel from India - Scotland: the Vasudhaiva Ride.

I am an educator, trainer, musician and general enthusiast. Learning, cooking, creating, dancing, being. forming new ways forward in service of those who need it. These are things I love doing.

Life is a rare gem. So let us work together to create peace, justice, sustainable ways of living and of course, music, good food and such. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Any network of people with some common, positive intention and the network to make it happen is exciting for me. Meeting people from all over and getting to see a more personal side of places I visit is a thrill.

As we travel--now from Kyrgyzstan to Scotland--we use couchsurfing to connect with locals, which often ends up in connections for projects and more.

In exchange, we can offer our stories, and connections to the transnational community we are helping to connect through the projects we are leading.
