Hi! I am Himanshu hailing from Mumbai, India. I have done my Masters in Science and am interested in scientific teaching and education. I am very outspoken, straightforward and love being around children to share knowledge on the subjects that I have learnt in my school and college days. I have a huge thirst for travelling to places to learn the culture, perks of their language, taste their cuisine and enjoy the landscapes. =

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a platform which will ease my travel expenses as I travel with a very tight budget. I remember being to Sikkim in the outskirts and found the experience of sharing a room in the invitee's place delighting. I wish to have the same experience again through this platform.

Music, Movies, and Books

Up, Into the Wild, Pay It Forward and more good movies that I love watching then and again. Occasionally Friends, Naruto and Avatar.

I live in Mumbai and I really lived it because of one book Suketu Mehta - Maximum city Mumbai. It is a must if you haven't read it yet. Jonathan Seagull has opened the skies for me and is a real motivation for conquering new heights.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo trekked to the fort of Rajmachi in Lonavala which is 22Kms one way in heavy monsoon rainfall.
Being in Maharashtra trekking has captivated me a lot. There are several forts in the neighbouring cities of Panvel, Pune, Lonavala, Nashik and Satara, and have a goal to trek to most of them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll love to share my travelling experiences and will like to learn about your city and associated perks.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good chat over a good cup of tea, I take pride in my cuppa.
