Student and interested in startups and sustainability :) Currently interning at one in Israel. Love to see and immerse in new things, especially attractions which have been hacked together by the locals. atlasobscura is my favourite travel website :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've started to travel on my own and have realised the best tips come from the locals - best food, cheapest (yet most valuable) experiences, great shops! Now as I'm planning a short backpacking trip across Central Europe, I'd love to make the best use of my time by avoiding the tourist traps and seeing the best the cities have to offer :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once (kind of) saved a dog by giving him CPR!

Also, I realised while travelling around central europe that I didn't drink any water in my 5 days in the Czech Republic. No wonder they have the highest beer consumption per capita!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching, learning and sharing about new ideas, innovations, social phenomena, pop and ancient cultures. That stuff really has helped me connect and learn a lot. I believe it's also taught me to be more open minded and is probably the underlying reason for why I love trying unique foods!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I bring stories from the East, just like the travelers of the past. That aside, I can share a lot of stories and some life-hacks from my experiences in my startup, in my original home (India) and the army.
