About Me

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass..It’s about learning to dance in the rain.
I am with a positive outlook and an open mind ,sometimes a cheerful pessimist ! Like any sagittarius , an emotional person but also a badass at times. I am trying to minimise the carbon footprints being ecofriendly and responsible.
Currently working as a Professor at a dental school and also a practicing dentist , care and empathy comes as a natural trait . I immensely enjoy being a homemaker and a mother of a 25 year old ! With my humble and calm hubby by my side, I feel I can joyfully conquer the world traveling that I love the most.
I love to meet people, though less talkative but a very good listener ! Love to embark on new adventures and have fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connect with people from all over the world. CS brings me new friends and new cultural experiences. I love the fact I have friends from everywhere. The idea of sharing a space will only bring you closer to a stranger in just a matter of days. It creates unforgettable memories and will certainly create wonderful friendships. I’ve kept in touch with most of my hosts as I’ll never forget what they did for me, what we shared together and their hospitality.
One could capture the everyday life living with people ,adapting to their different lifestyles, homes, cultures and traditions that will make you both more sociable and flexible in your travels. This experience also will give you a completely different outlook on any country. You could indulge in great local food.

Interests

Food is the love of my life. Cooking and baking is what I like the most. Sometimes when I travel I go to cooking schools or ask the host for their local cuisine to take an experience home with me.
Travel is about the experience. I love to travel with the locals and seek their advice than do tours run by the travel agents.
