About Me

I am a busy bee- balancing life between full-time work and grad school, and surprisingly making time to travel in between. The amount of food I can eat can be very deceiving for a 5'3'' petite me. I am trying to step out of my comfort zone by traveling solo. I can't wait to find out what my adventures have in store for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have never learned to eat alone, let alone be in a new place by myself. I am looking forward to making new friends during my solo adventures and exploring their lifestyle and culture in their homeland which otherwise can't be experienced via camera lens.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am pretty old school when it comes to music and movies. I listen to Jazz and Classical, and enjoy any movie that has Audrey Hepburn in it. I really enjoy reading books by Asian American authors. Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is my favorite book so far.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in the desert while traveling in Jordan

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to invest in the stock market... just kidding! I lived in Nepal for 16 years before relocating to the US. I have experienced the best and the worst of both worlds so I am easily adaptable to any type of change. Both countries being the melting pots of nationalities and religions, I am always accepting of people for the way they are and embrace their differences that make them unique.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would like to share my non-stop laughter, cooking skills and kite flying expertise.
