I grew up in Kolkata, India and then I travelled across several places in India for my education. After completing my bachelors and masters in chemical engineering, I have arrived at the United States of America for my PhD at Penn state. I currently reside in state college, Pennsylvania. I love hiking, exploring new places, meeting new people and understanding different cultures and religions.
I like to watch sunsets at pretty mountains and drink wine on a Sunday.
I also like to cook, so I can cook some good Indian food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is an amazing platform to make friends and share different cultures.That's the reason why I'm on couch surfing because I want to hear interesting stories from new people from totally different backgrounds than mine and share culture and values.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love different genres of music.I love good music no matter which genre it is.
I do not watch much movies nowadays. When I watch it, most of the time it is comedy or a thriller or horror movie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a bath in a frozen lake in Pennsylvania by breaking the ice surface and going inside.
Other experiences would include deep sea diving, para sailing which I did in Florida. These are amazing for me because I have never done them before and it was special.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my life's experiences and may be we can talk about our culture and thoughts over a glass of wine?
