Hey I'm Jaya!
I love taking any opportunity to explore and meet new people. The outdoors are where I love to be, whether that's hiking, on a run, mountain biking or climbing. Being out in nature or just exploring a new city fills me with joy, and life is always better when you share that experience with someone else.
I love my sports, mainly F1 and combat sports, but I like to give everything a go. I train a little BJJ and Muay Thai when I can as well as my own training.
Other hobbies I have are reading, photography and anything that brings peace. Always down for a deep philosophical conversation and exchanging ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never tried Couchsurfing but it has been on my radar for a long time. I find when you go away you don't tend to really meet people who live and breathe the place you are exploring and was wondering how to break this mold. What better way than to stay with, and get to know, someone who calls that place home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Each thing you do is amazing and one individual moment can not do it justice, so living life will have to be my one amazing thing I am currently doing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - Anything and everything I possibly can.

Learn - Absolutely anything and everything.

Share - The love of life and joy anyway possible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I want to meet the people of the place I'm visiting, get to know them, how they live and what life is like where they are. I want to hear their stories, best places to explore, things to do and what their ideology is behind life and and how to live it!

I love my photography and always need a subject for the frame - so happy to snap some shots on the way as well!

Ultimately, I just want to share a smile with some good company, laugh over some oldstories and be grateful for the opportunity life has presented.
