Hello! This is Maulik. I’m currently on a one year sabbatical to travel South America - I started in Argentina in November 2023. Hablo español también.

I lived in Switzerland for a few years before starting this trip. Enjoyed being able to get around Europe so easily. Also discovered my love for hiking and being in the mountains.

I have lived in Boston, New York, Chicago, and Mumbai. I try to travel as much as I can and love to meet new people during my travels. CS is a great way to make friends and I'd love to be hosted and hang out with you if I am visiting your city or meet/host folks visiting my area.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Many years ago, I was the only person staying in a hostel in Gyeongju which was a little stranger and I decided to try CS after that. I’ve hosted a few people and couch surfed on my next few trips and it’s been great! I love to meet new people and see a new city/country from their perspective or show you my city from mine.

Music, Movies, and Books

Enjoy all kinds of music. Im a big Bollywood fan! Trying to listen to different kinds of international music as I travel. I used to go to Montreal every summer for the Jazz festival while I lived in the US. I’m currently learning Spanish and trying to listen to a lot more Spanish music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kayaking at bio-bay in Puerto Rico. They have microorganisms in the water that glow when touched. The water lights up in an avatar-like glow as you paddle through. It's magical!
