I'm Mridul; I can't get enough of open-minded conversations, racket sports, museums and good cocktails.

I like to think of myself as a curious soul, a lifelong learner who is passionate about sustainability and innovations.

Right now, I'm studying Sustainable and Innovative Natural Resource Management (Erasmus Masters) which takes part in Ghent (Belgium); Uppsala (Sweden) and Freiberg (Germany).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in the "Pay it forward" idea. Sooner or later, I wish to travel (avoiding airlines) and find myself on unexpected adventures. Hence, I am here to host and get hosted by people!

Interests

I love to cook (mostly vegan/vegetarian), walk in the city or nature, visit museums, bike and play racket sports (badminton, tennis, ping pong...) in my free time. I also like to watch stand up comedy and documentaries!
