Overview
About Me
Hey guys I just graduated from the University of Victoria with a BA in Cultural Anthropology. I grew up in Uganda and Canada has been my home for the past four years. I am Indian by nationality. I enjoy traveling and photography. In the past 3 years, I've traveled to Malta, Cuba, Mexico, USA, and Japan. I think my favorite was Malta because of the amazing people and beautiful beaches I found there.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'd like to meet new people and continue meeting local people as I go. In my experience that has always improved the trip. I haven't couch surfed yet but I have met up with people in Victoria to show them around and hang out.

Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to meet more people that have traveled and love traveling, there is always so much more to learn. As an Anthropologist, I have done research projects around understanding family, community and migration. I would love to share my knowledge of these subjects, especially with the way our world politics are going.
