Über mich
I am research scholar from Kolkata, India. Currently I am enrolled as a Ph.D. candidate at the department of Women's Studies, Jadavpur University. What are the three things that I love? Books, movies, and meeting new people. I like falling into conversation with people, I like spontaneity. From history f science to literature, European movies to Indian New wave, from history of different cities to feminist theory - my interest has taken me to explore different corners of the scholarly terrain. Every new book, every new movie feels like an uncharted territory to me. I might not have visited many places in the world but in order have a good time, sometimes all you need is couch to lie down upon and a book in your hands. And that is the kind of person that I am.
Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin
while visiting certain places (Especially in the hilly regions of India), I have always felt that staying with the local people can give you a different experience altogether. Sharing a place with someone belonging to a different culture, taking part in their household activities can provide one a novel insight. And that is precisely what I am looking for.
And even though I do not have a place of my own and I will not be able to host anyone, I would love to be your travel guide for a day if you ever visit my city.
