Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Here to meet some supercool people of the CS community and share travel and cultural experiences!

Heard about Couchsurfing while I was teaching in South Africa. Instantly found it fascinating. Now, I have hosted travelers from over 20 countries, met travelers from over 50 countries in my city and couchsurfed as a guest in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Poland, Japan, Turkey and the United States.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumped from the Bloukrans Bridge in South Africa. It's the highest bungee in the world at 216m/709ft!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Hindi language and an insight into the salacious Indian cuisine.

Open to learning anything new! (well.. almost anything!)

I can share great insights on the culture and traditions of India. Maybe more stuff in general because in India we really mean "Atithi Devo Bhava" (roughly translates to "A Guest is like God"). Also, my countless travel stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travelling shenanigans and stories.

Indian snacks/souvenirs.

And of course, the fascinating cultures and traditions of India.
