Hola Lovely people!

I am Dr. Shalini, high on life and energy at all hours of the day!

I am a Dentist by profession, so keep myself and my surroundings clean as a habit. I smile as much as I can and love to bring more smiles to this world. I recently moved to Baltimore for my graduate program at Johns Hopkins. Saving lives, millions at a time :)

I love meeting new people, mingling with a new culture, enjoying the differences, and then overwhelmingly arriving at the same conclusion..." we are all the same"! :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I enjoy staying and meeting with natives or people from different cultures.. which helps me virtually travel to the places which I have not been to, yet. It also helps with my savings :)

While hosting, I love talking and sharing my insight into the Indian culture/yoga/food etc. I offer Free Dental Checkups to all couch surfers and also free Intro Guided Meditation sessions. If available, I love to show my city around to overseas travelers as well.

教，学，和分享

I love to teach/share my life, experiences with other people and know theirs. It makes my journey of life double as interesting and adventurous. I ask a lot of questions, an inquisitive soul that I am, so be prepared to tell me all about your history/culture/people and yourselves!
