About Me

The Couchsurfing community is incredible! I’m excited to explore hidden gems, connect with new faces, and create unforgettable memories that will stay on your wall forever.

That said, I kindly ask that you send personalized requests that show you’ve taken the time to read my profile. I truly appreciate the effort. 😊

Past Experiences

I’ve been fortunate to capture unforgettable memories during my travels, particularly in Amsterdam, where the people made the city even more special. I believe it’s the connections we make that truly define a place.

About Me

I’m currently working as a Designer at Microsoft, creating tech products that make a difference.

Recently, I spent a fantastic month in London and previously lived in Amsterdam for six months, working at the Amsterdam Media Lab, where I speculated on the future of safety for my final year Master’s thesis at the National Institute of Design in India. During that time, I had the pleasure of hosting some wonderful people.

I’ve had amazing experiences traveling across Europe—Berlin, Hamburg, Florence, Rome, Belgium, and Austria, to name a few. After a short break from Couchsurfing, I’m back and eager to dive into new adventures and create more memorable experiences.

Up next: Dubai! I’m looking forward to meeting fascinating people and discovering the local culture.

Philosophy

You only live once. Let’s make it count.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This little poem inspired me...
"What is life worth,
if we can't all be
a bunch of a god-damn hippies
laying in hammocks by creek
feeling the togetherness
of the earthly silence.
Hardly a work spoken
Hardly work missed.
Because the best thing to be is
A God-dammed Hippy
Laying in a Hammock"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"Discovering myself" in the process of knowing new people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am not a local, but been here from quite some time and know few gems in the city and would love to show you around.

I do work on weekdays but I am free after 6 most days. If you plan to rent out bikes that's amazing. I can show you around with bikes. I know some really good bars, coffee shops, amazing food places, musuems etc.

I can show you around my neighborhood, party, introduce to my friends if you like, sip some wine, share some travel stories.

I can organise Indian cooking sessions which most of my hosts really love.

And if I are really like you, I can share you my spotify playlist ;)

Countries I’ve Lived In

India, Netherlands
