About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To think of something suitably witty/ poignant/ inspiring with which to fill this box.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have met lots of great people through couchsurfing and hope to continue to do so. I have hosted more than surfed and also mets lots of people to hangout with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have many interesting people through couchsurfing some of whom I am now lucky enough to call friends. I have shared many great experiences with couchsurfers ranging from a comedy show in New York, exploring Delhi on the back of a Moped, to being hypnotised by a Psychologist in my hometown of Oxford.

Interests

I like to learn, and I am fascinated by my studies - I love to have discussions about anything related to psychology/ social issues/ criminology, particularly with people who know more than I do.

I am a feminist, and I am passionate about women's rights - living in India has taught me how valuable they are.

Of course, I also love meeting people from different places, and hearing about the things that make their hometowns and cultures unique.
