Hello! I am from Calcutta, India; in the far east. I am an engineer in Information Technology and hold an MBA in Marketing. Professionally, I have always been fascinated with data and how it reveals so much about everything going around us. Personally, I love listening to music, exploring new artists and genre and meeting new people and learning more about histories and culture of a place. And of course trying out new cuisines and local food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be moving to Amsterdam for work. And this will be a big move for me since I will not be having any accompanying family member with me. I think this will be a cool way to really experience the culture and people through someone local who knows their way around the city. I'm new to this app because I have mostly used AirBnBs, but this seems like an exciting adventure already! Do excuse me if am still starting out to build some references here. 😊

Music, Movies, and Books

All time fav movies: Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Persepolis
I cannot pick one music as my favourite, I listen to a wide variety of genres and honestly its very subjective to my mood; some day its house, some day its techno and someday its just soulful country. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Umm amazing is a really subjective word isn't it? Maybe take the decision of packing my bags and migrate to Netherlands leaving my entire roots behind? Is this amazing enough?
