I'm a mix of nationalities and languages but I've been told I'm pretty easy-going and fun to be around. I was born in London, grew up in Switzerland and am now in the Netherlands. However, I have strong Indian roots. I'm a music enthusiast being a percussionist and I dabble with a few other instruments. Sadly singing has never been one of my qualities however hard I try to change that. I'm quite a spontaneous person who occasionally manages to take nice pictures of people and things. In 2017 I did a backpacking trip from the west to the east of India. It was easily the best time I have had. I loved waking up to an adventure everyday. I'm currently pursuing my masters in Interaction Technology at the University of Twente in Enschede.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I really like the concept of a website where you can meet like minded people and bond over a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. It's great to have a platform where you can talk with fellow travellers about travelling and passions for different things and try out a new language or two.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Rise Against, Mumford & Sons, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Panic!, Jack Johnson, Bastille... A wide range of stuff, basically Books: The Name of the Wind - Patrick Rothfuss, The Night Circus - Erin Morgenstern, The Book Thief - Markus Zusak
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I once met the Olympic Chinese Archery team at the airport and asked them how the tournament went while the olympics were still going on. It was an embarrassing moment for both of us as they were obviously going home. This isn't an amazing thing but it definitely is an amazingly dumb thing.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach some basic music stuff and share weird legends and myths I learned myself while travelling around. I'm always up for learning salsa and dancing things as I've never quite been exposed to that.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I make quite a mean garlic bread :)
