Hi There! I am Manan ( Proud Indian) and 3 months back I left job my as a management consultant job travel the world. ️

In last 2 months I have travelled to Kenya, Tanzania and Nepal and now I am backpacking across Europe starting from Amsterdam, Netherlands. (You can see my Eurotrip plan in photos)

My style of travelling is non-touristy, slow and unplanned focusing on local culture and history.

I can speak English, Hindi and German.

My tentative backpacking plan:
June: 🇰🇪 🇹🇿
August: 🇳🇵
September: 🇩🇪 🇳🇱 🇩🇰
October: 🇸🇪 🇳🇴 🇫🇮 🇪🇪 🇱🇻 🇱🇹 🇷🇴 🇧🇬
November: 🇷🇸 🇲🇰 🇦🇱 🇽🇰

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing for 3 reasons:

1- To meet and connect with interesting people. I feel the best way to know about a foreign culture and history is to live and experience life like a local.

2- Make new friends and hang out with like minded people across the world as I am a solo backpacker. (Would love to host them back when you are in India)

3- Free accommodation in return helping out in all possible ways I can. ( I have worked as a management consultant & fitness trainer and I think i can help you out in these areas)

Intereses

My Interest Areas:

1) WeightLifting & Training: I love to workout not for physical fitness but for mental fitness as well. These days i am focusing on calisthenics (Body-Weight lifting). I have also trained and helped my friends to achieve their fitness goals.

2) Travelling & Culture: Have been to around 27 countries and love to connect with locals.

3) Learning languages and finding the commonalities & differences between them.

4) Ukulele: I started from Guitar but being such a big instrument I shifted to Ukulele. I wont say i am great at it but yeah good is the right word.
