CURRENT MISSION
Not travelling for work so much anymore so I figure why not bring the world to my doorstep :)

ABOUT ME

Fell in love with the beautiful, quirky city of Paris with it's grumpy but lovable Parisians and have been living here now for more than 10 years. My background (British Indian but both parents born in Kenya) has helped me to be open to learn about different cultures and people are what fascinate me - that and Nature! Though I'm ashamed to say that I'm not the most socially responsible person but if I can host or visit people and contribute to their well-being, it's a start!

PHILOSOPHY

One short life - got to make the most of it. Carpe diem...

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have been hosted in the US and Costa Rica and hosted once so far. Now that I've put my suitcases down, I reckon I shall host much more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been hosted twice and thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to more CS experiences!
