Hey! Welcome!

I’m Pooja. (Pooja means prayer or worship in Hindi)

I’m a positive, passionate, and an adventurous spirit who likes to challenge and push the boundaries of my life.
With a curious and focused mind set, I’m often able to find growth opportunities in the worst case scenarios.
I’m religious, kind and charitable. I’m a go-getter.

I dive with killer whales, sharks and often plan my trips around epic live-aboard adventures across the globe. I love watching UFC fights, riding motorcycles, traveling and everything outdoorsy.

I’m a digital nomad. I currently work as a Data Scientist at NASA and have worked as an Engineer/ IT Consultant for the US Government and many large biotechnology firms across the United States for the past decade.

Now meet Chichi 🐱

Chichi is my little baby princess. She’s a quiet, obedient and gentle girl. She’s tender, protective and loyal. She’ll approach you only if she’s willing and if she takes a particular liking to you, she may even sneak in your room at night and throw up on your clothes :) Chichi baby loves watching the sunrise, snuggling with mommy and greeting surfers at the door.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I swam with wild killer whales, fin whales and humpbacks deep in the arctic ocean in -22C for 7 days straight. Oooo what fun!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I’m grateful and more than happy to learn whatever you can teach well. 🙏 Information exchange is an undervalued currency.

I can teach you how to design systems, trade, code, cook, ride a motorbike, hunt in my backyard, and give you scuba diving lessons in my pool 🏊‍♀️

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

At my house I do all the work by myself including hedge and tree trimming, pool maintenance, landscaping, plumbing, so don’t feel shy to ask me for help with your household chores.
Let me know how I can be of service. I will assist with whatever is needed in and around the house to the best of my ability.
