Hi, I'm Darshit. I'm a very simple guy, originally from India, based out of West Africa for work. I'm very easy to get along, calm & friendly.

I've lived across multiple countries within West Africa & contrary to my initial experiences, this place has really grown on me. The driving philosophy of my life has been to always keep learning & striving. Im always seeking opportunities to learn something new, share & gain rich life experiences.

Life's mission:
To solve atleast one problem, however minuscule, pertaining the world today and make this a better place to live for tomorrow.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

To continue my pursuit of understanding, interacting with people from diverse cultures

Be a good host to people travelling to Cotonou & help them have a comfortable stay
