CURRENT MISSION

Walking in a straight line, doodling, improving my bouldering skills.

ABOUT ME

I'm a young, energetic and talkative person. I come from an extremely pretty town in the south of Rajasthan state, called Udaipur. Udaipur is famous for it's numerous lakes, quaint little antique shops and beautiful big palacios. I have very strong family roots and my family is very open and enthusiastic about various cultures of the world.
I've been living in Munich, Germany since 2012, and I think it's a fantastic city to live in. The comfort levels of day to day life are unbeatable here, and everything just works. Also, it's incredibly beautiful, in and around.
I love a good conversation over a cup of coffee or preferably an elaborate breakfast. I look to constantly be exposed to people with new ideas, cultural backgrounds, eating habits etc. I'm a foodie and I love to try new cuisines.
People fascinate me more than places, landmarks and museums and I'm looking forward to the day when we all can just sit, talk and chill and not be judgemental about each other's opinions and ways of lives.

PHILOSOPHY

When with people coming from varied backgrounds, identify with your similarities and explore your differences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a couchsurfer, I respect the rules of your house and I'm really thankful for the sleeping space and general warm-heartedness.
As a host, I'll welcome you to my place and will be happy to show you around the town. I keep changing jobs and cities frequently, so at any given point in time, I might or might not be living in a big apartment, depending on the city, but either way, I'll try to make you very comfortable.

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a LOT. I enjoy good literature and mostly fiction. My favorite authors include Italo Calvino, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Franz Kafka etc.
I listen to a lot of different kinds of music viz. rock, blues, jazz, classical etc. but I tend to fall back to classic rock whenever I'm just relaxing or kicking it back. Some of my favorite bands/musicians are Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Bo Didley, The Who etc.
I'm of slightly more eccentric taste when it comes to movies and also experiment much more there :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven to the highest motorable road in the world, Khardung-La pass in Leh, Ladakh. Well, that's a lie. I didn't drive, I just sat in the passenger seat extremely nervous all the way.
I've been to the top of Eiffel Tower, which is pretty amazing to me. Also saw the Monalisa while in Paris.
During my stay in Germany, I've seen some marvelous feats of engineering. One example would be the Wasserbridge (Water bridge) to be seen near Magdeburg. This bridge is an aqueduct which is navigable too. So basically a bridge over a river, which is a river in itself and supports navigation by ships and boats! You've got to see it to believe how magnificent it is.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you hindi, how to solve a Rubik's Cube; I can recommend good books to you based on what kind of person I've known you to be. In return for it, you can teach me your local language and how to cook a typical dinner meal from where you come from!
