Hello lovely folks of the Couchsurfing community!

I am an Indian expat, now living in the beautiful and quiet city of Eindhoven, Netherlands. I came here for work, and has been love with the city ever since.

I recently bought a house in this city, and a room has been lying idle, yet furnished - which is why I thought of playing host!

I am new to this community, but I really enjoy travelling and also meeting and talking to people from diverse cultures. I have travelled to over 20 countries, and I am eager to travel more.

My home is very close to the Eindhoven airport, so that's a plus point to whoever is looking for some time to rest before catching their early morning flight.

** HOUSE RULES **

1. No smoking or use of drugs inside the house.
2. You can use the kitchen and use some of our ingredients, but I won't be able to cook for you specifically. Of course, we could cook together if time permits.
3. Please keep the home and bathroom tidy.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

My goal as a host is to understand and offer help to people - I believe in paying it forward.

I believe that everyone can teach you something new and interesting. Remember "what is obvious to you is amazing to others". So, we are always looking to hear about your interesting stories and experiences. I think this makes us a better human being.

Also, to be honest - an expat's life is almost always lonely - we are away from family and friends. I would really love some company.

My only requirement - don't forget your sense of humour at home ;)

音乐、电影和书籍

As an Indian, my exposure to music is limited to Indian music, though I listen to English songs as well.

Indian artists I like are - AR Rahman (the GOAT), Shankar Ehsaan Loy, Sonu Nigam

I am a huge movie buff - My favourite movies are:

- The Shawshank Redemption
- Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu (Tamil)
- Bangalore Days (Malayalam)
- Kumbalangi Nights (Malayalam)
- Thallumala (Malayalam)

FYI - Malayalam movie industry consistently produces some of the best movies that come out of India. Give it a try ;)

Series:

- Breaking Bad
- Sherlock
- Narcos
- Ted Lasso

Books - anything in the thriller/mystery genre. Some of my favourite books are:

- Not a penny more, not a penny less
- Going Zero
- All books of Keigo Higashino

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

1 - attended a Coldplay concert - it was one of the loveliest, most amazing shows I've been to.

2 - Went from being a couch potato to a 5k runner - it took a lot of patience and training :)

3 - NYE party with fellow couchsurfers in London. It was the most fun I've had in a long while, and I danced my heart out.

教，学，和分享

I've been an engineer all my life, so the best support I can provide is tech support :D

Jokes apart, I can join you in conversations about probably any topic under the sun. I love discussing anything related to tech, philosophy, the meaning of life, our purpose in this world and such :)

I'm also told that I'm a good photographer, and I'm happy to take pictures for you.

I also like to dance and I'm up to hit a club and break a leg at any time 😄
