CURRENT MISSION

To understand why things are the way they are.

ABOUT ME

Greetings! I was born and raised in Germany by an Indian mother and a German father. After a year of backpacking in India at the age of 17, I stayed and finished high school in Bangalore. I first worked in development aid in Auroville, then studied law through the University of London, including two semesters of attendance in Islamabad, followed by sociology and more law. After returning to Germany, I first did voluntary military service, then became a personnel officer. Meanwhile I also developed a great interest in politics, discovering solidarity as the key to a better society. I love travelling to broaden my horizon and also support people in that endeavor wherever and whenever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito. (African proverb)

We talk a lot about giving more. We're not talking about taking less. We talk a lot about what we should do more of. We don't talk about what we should do less of. (Anand Giridharadas)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm traveling frequently so I can't host most of the time, but love to meet fellow globetrotters whether it's just for a good conversation over some coffee or travel advise.

Teach, Learn, Share

One reason I love traveling is, apart from pleasant company, that I'm learning so much from people I meet on the way. I can't be grateful enough to all my fellow travelers who have shared so much about their insight into this world :)
