READ THIS BEFORE YOU MESSAGE/SEND REQUEST:
1. I'm on the move currently and will not be able to host people for sometime, so please don't send request unless my profile says I'm accepting guests.
2. I'm not particularly interested in meeting new people from my city for just hanging out or getting to know me. I'm here to host people (which I can't now) and meet people when I travel. If I'm open to that, my profile would be showing "wants to meet up".
3. Don't just send hi and expect a reply, this is not a medium for chatting with strangers!

I hail from Chennai, the city of temples and culture, and moved to Bangalore for my work. I was working as a business analyst for a couple of years but I quit my job to take a gap year and pursue my dream of solo travel.
I have traveled 10+ countries and currently exploring India. Apart from my love for traveling, I'm also a big foodie; exploring and experimenting different food cultures all over the world is my current life goal.
Traveling as a solo female traveler in India has been challenging sometimes but it has been incredibly rewarding too when you meet people who go out of their way to make your travel special. I hope to blog sometime to share my travel and food adventures.
I love music and am a trained classical singer, always willing to listen different kinds but post rock, Indian classical and metal have been my favorites, though I can understand why some people might find that combination a bit...odd!
Sharing travel experiences and learning is something I absolutely enjoy and I hope I get to hear your stories sometime.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking solo across India has definitely been one of the best things I've ever done!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can teach you to cook a hearty meal! From Indian to Italian; savoury to sweets. I could probably teach you a song or two from movies or Indian classical songs.

Learn: I'm always eager to learn about different cuisines, food techniques and cultures around the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Apart from great stories and sharing my travel experiences, I'm a decent cook. I can make a meal or help you in the kitchen. I can take you for a movie or surprise you with a gift based on your interest. If you have something specific in your mind, do let me know.
