About Me

I'm a hobbyist human geographer and Buddhist Tibetan-English translator, incessantly on the trail of good food and vast views. Also I live for the pure joyful yoga of cycling and skiing downhill.

As a student, my ability to host depends on my schedule, please check!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined because I was broke and needed to sleep inside. Now, I can offer some hospitality and insight into life in Kathmandu and Nepal.
