Hi everyone! My name is Ishan and I'm a third year student in college. I will be traveling around Switzerland from August 26- September 12, and I would love to meet up with locals and learn the Swiss culture the real way! I love trying new foods and exploring, biking, and watching movies and tv shows, since I am studying film in college. I am new to Couchsurfing and would be grateful to meet hosts and other locals!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The world is full of different people from various cultures, and Couchsurfing is a great way of getting to know different people and learning from them. I want to meet locals on my trips to provide me with a more authentic travel experience. Not only that, but I would love to hangout with locals and make friends from around the world.

Be kind and receive kindness.

Music, Movies, and Books

For music I like Rihanna, G-Eazy, Lady Gaga, Avicii, Major Lazer. I love Bollywood movies since I grew up watching them mostly. As for Hollywood movies, there are too many to pick as my favorites. I like anything good! I'm not a big reader but among my favorites are The Great Gatsby, Nineteen Minutes, and Gone Girl.

I've hiked 13 km during a pilgrimage to Vaishno Devi temple in Katra, Jammu & Kashmir, India.
