POV: Couchsurfing is a hosting app, NOT a dating app. Hence, I dont respond to hangout/meet up requests.

Now that we've established THAT.... a few tips before you send a request, I host those who are..
- 'Verified'
- Lady or couples
- Have multiple reviews

A professional, mother of a grown-up boy, life long learner, traveller, birding enthusiast, paragliding pilot, trekker and performer (performing arts and otherwise). These labels are the usual suspects. I am an explorer who brings structure and possibility to life. I run a consulting company that supports organisations in their high-growth phase. My team's practice is spread across several countries, hence I travel often for work and pack in mini-explorations at each destination.

Ive travelled extensively in India, and 26 countries across continents (UK, USA, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Egypt, Seychelles, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Iceland, France, Croatia, Russia, Singapore, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Thailand, Malaysia, UAE, New Zealand, Turkey, Sweden).. and counting.

So, I am based at Mumbai, rarely at Mumbai though. When at Mumbai, I host board games at my place, entertain friends and family, explore local food, watch movies and plays, drive-out to paraglide, exercise or stay in and work from home.

The learner in me (trivia: my name means 'godess of learning') is curious about a lot of topics and always up for an intellectual and meanigful discussion - especially about culture, birding, wildlife, treks, paragliding, indigenous healing methods, handicrafts and business. My idea of fun is - conversations, great food, board games, dance, time in the wilderness and mountains.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
