I'm a lawyer by training, and also a yogi. After 3 years of working in legal research and policy, I've found that I gather energy and peace from yoga, travel and making connections with people wherever I go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find great pleasure in meeting and talking to people wherever I go. I learn so much about their cultures and about mine, too, in the conversations and shared space. I love the expansive and diverse perspectives of the universe and people that travel gives me. Couchsurfing, I've heard from my friends, is a great way to put together travel and exchanging cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kayaked down the river Sharavati (India) until the point where it reached the sea. The fisherman's beach, past the last house, was breathtaking!
