I’m a student currently living in Zürich. I’m from India, where I have lived for most of my life. I have always loved to travel, though never alone. I have very recently been enchanted by the idea of solo travelling and want to explore it. I’m new to CS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a fear of heights, by heights I mean even something like 10 meters scares the hell out of me. So, I had this brilliant idea of bungee jumping from almost 100 meters. I still don’t know how I jumped, but I did. Wouldn’t say that I really conquered my fear, but it was one of the most thrilling experiences of my life.

Another very different experience that I’m very proud of was organising a relief camp for people during a slum fire in Bhubaneswar. When I was studying in Bhubaneswar, there was a fire in one of the slums in the city. To help people living there in their rehabilitation, we collected donations in form of clothes, shoes, blankets etc. We distributed these among people living there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
Apart from languages that I know, I can offer to teach cooking some Indian food.
Learn:
I love to meet new people and learn about their cultures and life experiences. There’s always so much to know about everyone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d love to talk about places that I have visited, cities I’ve lived in, food, culture, politics, religion etc. If possible, I’d like to cook a meal and eat together!
