ABOUT ME

I’m a dermatologist from India with a deep love for traveling, art, gardening, and cats! My journey as a traveler began in 2011, and my most memorable adventure so far has been in Germany. Back then, I was an introvert on a tight budget, but Couchsurfing gave me the chance to stay with three amazing hosts over seven days. That trip opened my eyes to the beauty of connecting with locals and experiencing life as they do.

Since then, I’ve shifted to staying in hotels and Airbnbs, but my passion for understanding cultures and people has only grown. I’m on Couchsurfing to meet locals, gain unique perspectives, and share experiences that go beyond the typical tourist itinerary.

I’m a passionate art lover, especially drawn to traditional art forms and immersive art experiences. I love climbing to the tallest buildings for breathtaking city views and walking aimlessly on vacation, embracing the joy of losing track of time—something I rarely do in my structured life back home. For me, travel is as much about the journey as the destination, and I savor the small, unplanned moments that make each trip memorable. That said, I am also that crazy tourist who wants to check off everything on the list (but I am mindfully moving away from that)

I’m not a party person but enjoy deep conversations, exploring vegan meals, and finding hidden gems in every city. If our paths cross, I’d love to hear your story, learn about your city, and share some of my experiences too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To connect with locals, experience cities through their eyes, and enjoy meaningful moments while traveling. Whether it’s a casual meetup, a walk through your favorite neighborhood, or just a good conversation, I’m excited to learn and share in the adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

LIVE AND LET LIVE

hope for the best but be prepared for the worst!
