My family is from Sri Lanka, I was born and raised in New Jersey, USA and I currently live in Brooklyn, NY.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and experience places the way locals do. I want to understand culture in all its aspects and I feel that the best way to do this is by immersing yourself with the very people that make up a culture. I love people wholeheartedly and I'm always inspired by their stories.
