Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking forward to meeting new and interesting people and exchange experiences and food with them. It's so liberating to meet people like me who loves travelling and sharing their stories. I feel like home here at CS :')

I believe staying local with a person is interesting and authentic specially when travelling abroad. I've been hosted by very kind people and with whom I've enjoyed a lot. I've also found people who do software and have given me great career advices and also advised me on which wines to drink when we were out partying. That's why I'm here.

I'm also looking forward to meet and host like-minded people in my small house in Pune. When I myself isn't travelling, I can still know and discover a lot about places, language and culture from my guests.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds and genres of music. I'm infatuated with Indie music and a lot of Tamil and Indian Indie artists.

Please share your favourite music playlist or albums with me, (for me it's a real treasure)

I am a hopeless romantic and loves romantic love stories, Rowling and Coelho has been very inspiring, although everyday I end up reading the Newspaper. Sometimes I write poems!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been teaching kids for free whenever I get the time :)
Have been volunteering for the UN, international and local non-profits.

I roamed around Tokyo without internet and translation.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to share my life experiences, and ofcourse talk about India, Indian culture and music.

I can teach coding, Hindi, talk about life and everything in between from quantum physics to functional genomics to algorithms to history. 🤓

People say that I'm a very good listener and at times we can vent out a lot to strangers and learn from their own experiences. So I'm all ears! 😊

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am always up for interesting 2 AM conversations, travel stories and also I help in cleaning dishes. I always try to help the host/others in any other ways in I can if plausible.
I practice medication and yoga, and can tell about my experiences.

I don't mind giving hugs :)
