For the past 6 years, I have lived in one country for about two years. Relocating and getting to know different people and ways of lives is my favorite thing to do. But, I haven't really gotten the chance to do short term travelling. So, that's what I hope to do this year!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a way to experience the places I visit and the cultures I'm immersed in through the perspective of the locals.
Also, I'm eager to learn about people's travels and see places I haven't been to before through their eyes.

Interests

I love to read. I prefer books that tell stories of different cultures. So, reading books by Khaled Hosseini, Toni Morrison, Albert Camus etc are my favorite pastimes.

Scouring Netflix for films and series.

Social entrepreneurship is an interest of mine as well. I like the concept of companies that are started with the aim of implementing positive social change.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A bottle of wine.

Would love to share and talk about anything that comes up in the moment. If you share similar interests, we can connect. If not, it would be great to learn from you.

I like to cook yummy dishes. Maybe we can have a conversation over a meal
