I'm a Canadian guy of Indian origins who graduated from McGill in Montreal. I also did an exchange in Milan for 5 months where I began learning Italian and have continued since. I've been working in Toronto for the past couple of years.

In 2016, I was fortunate enough to travel my way through Italy using this awesome app. While my current living arrangements don't allow me to host couchsurfers, I'd be happy to show fellow travelers a few of the hidden gyms this city has to offer.

I'm an avid reader, faux-film connoisseur, passionate cook (predominately italian and indian cuisine), and a great conversationalist with dangerously sharp wit.

I've recently grown an appreciation for language-learning and while I'm hoping to practice my Italian the most, I also know a little bit of french and good amount of Hindi & Punjabi in the odd chance you want to converse in it.
