Hi, I’m Dipesh from India, I love to travel and I have travelled to a lot of places in India. I am currently backpacking across Southeast Asia starting from Thailand.

A photographer who still can’t resist clicking too many photos of sunsets and a firm believer that every good story starts with either a bad idea or a cheap bus ticket.

I travel to collect conversations more than souvenirs. If you host me, I promise I’ll bring good vibes, a questionable sense of humour, and the ability to make chai(tea) strong enough to revive jet-lagged souls.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Because hotels don’t tell you the real story of a city, but hosts do.

Also, because meeting locals beats staring at the “Things To Do” tab on Google Maps.

I love the idea of people sharing their homes and stories with strangers who eventually become friends… or at least fun dinner guests with weird travel tales.
