I am a Software Engineer turned Outdoor Educator. I love travelling to different places, be it the mountains, cities or the seaside.

I love photography. You can check out some of my work on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/diptarkagupta/

I love meeting people from around the globe and try out local cuisine wherever I go. I am also interested in understanding the culture of those places.

Apart from this I am a utra runner and long distance cyclist. Interesting fact is I learnt how to ride a bicycle in July 2020 and became a Super Randonneur by March 2021.

I am keen in learning about the Cosmos and Stargazing.

My current profession makes me live in the Himalayas throughout the year.

In the year 2019, I quit my job as a Software Engineer to backpack across Latin America for a year.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love to travel and I like to meet the locals of a place I am visiting, understanding their culture from local's point of view.
