Hi We're Diana and Vinay! Vinay is from India and Diana grew up in the US. We met in University and many years later got married in New Delhi India. We love to explore places, take the road less traveled, meet people and hear their stories. We especially love to swap stories over food! We enjoy cooking and learning recipes from other countries, especially being a multicultural couple. We both enjoy learning languages, laughing and enjoying life. Our goal is to travel at least one new place every year. We are happiest when traveling and meeting new people and experiencing different cultures.

We have an 18 year old fur baby (cat) named Lucky who has many dog tendencies!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
