Hi, I'm Pappu from Dhaka, Bangladesh. I'm 26 years old and have explored a lot within my own country. Now, I'm setting my sights on global adventures as I plan to travel around the world solo. I have a small business that keeps me going, but my passion lies in discovering new places and meeting incredible people along the way.

I was pursuing a B.Sc. in Computer Science at Dhaka University but had to step away from it due to personal reasons. Now, I'm focused on getting to Europe for both study and travel. I'm excited to embark on this new chapter, and if I get to connect and share my journey with amazing people, that would be the best part of it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe travel is about more than just ticking off destinations. It's about forging authentic connections with people from around the globe and sharing unforgettable experiences. Having explored Bangladesh extensively, I'm now venturing out to explore the world solo. I'm eager to immerse myself in diverse cultures and learn from the unique perspectives of locals and fellow travelers. Couchsurfing feels like the ideal platform to build lasting bonds, exchange stories, and create memories that go beyond the ordinary tourist experience. I'm excited to share my journey and learn from others as we explore the world together

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a variety of music, from relaxing acoustic tunes to upbeat electronic beats. I’m also a fan of local Bangladeshi music and love discovering new sounds from around the world as I travel. Music is an essential part of my life, and I’m always open to exploring new genres.

I’m into movies that inspire me and make me think, whether it's thought-provoking dramas, classic films, or documentaries. I also enjoy adventure and travel-themed movies that fuel my wanderlust. I have seen a lot of TV series. My favorites are Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Vikings, Peaky Blinders, Friends, and Better Call Saul.

Books that broaden my perspective on life, travel, and personal growth are my go-to reads. Whether it’s fiction or non-fiction, I love stories that transport me to different worlds or teach me something new. If you have any book recommendations, I’m all ears!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I've done is traveling extensively across Bangladesh, discovering the diverse beauty of my own country. From the lush hills of Sylhet to the serene beaches of Cox's Bazar and the historical landmarks in Dhaka, I've had the privilege of exploring many hidden gems. These journeys not only allowed me to see breathtaking landscapes but also to connect with people from various cultures and backgrounds within my own country. Now, I'm excited to take this spirit of adventure to the rest of the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experiences of traveling around Bangladesh, offering tips and stories that could help anyone planning to explore this beautiful country. I also run a small business, so I can share insights on entrepreneurship and managing a business while pursuing other passions. If you're interested in tech, I have a background in Computer Science, so I'm happy to discuss anything related to tech, coding, or the digital world.

I'm eager to learn from others, especially when it comes to different cultures, languages, and ways of life. As I travel, I'm looking to learn more about the world, from local traditions to unique perspectives. I’m also keen to learn new skills, whether it’s cooking local dishes, understanding new technology, or simply hearing about someone's life journey.

I love sharing my travel stories, especially my adventures throughout Bangladesh, and now as I embark on my journey around the world. I’m excited to share my experiences with people I meet along the way, whether it’s over a meal, a walk through a new city, or just casual conversation. I believe in the power of storytelling and the connections that can be built through shared experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a guest, I love to bring positive energy and good conversation. I can share my travel experiences, especially my adventures across Bangladesh, which could be an interesting cultural exchange. I’m also happy to help out around the house, whether it's cooking a meal, sharing some local Bangladeshi recipes, or simply lending a hand with daily tasks.

If you’re interested in business or tech, I can share my experiences in entrepreneurship and insights from my background in Computer Science. I enjoy meaningful conversations, whether it's about travel, culture, or life in general, and I’m always open to sharing stories and learning from others. I believe in mutual respect and making sure that my stay is a positive and enriching experience for both of us.
