My name is Sharang and I am a product designer from India. Creating art or design gives me immense pleasure and learning. I am not a very frequent traveler like westerners are but I really like the idea of solo travel. I have been training myself into rock climbing for last 1.5 years. My recent most memorable climb is to Everest base camp. You should definitely check it out, it's heaven. :D I also love long boarding on hill slopes which also makes me say I am mountain person for sure. I really want to long board in Iceland in Waltermitty style. I am fluent in English and learning German gradually.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't really like the idea of living in hotels. They are boring and costly.
However, Airbnb or Couchsurfing is relatively cheaper and good way to connect to local people and their culture :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to Everest Basecamp.
Longboarded from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you Buddhist meditation called Vipassana. It's one of the oldest and effective forms of having mindfulness. Some yoga, skating or bouldering if you are into outdoor adventure stuff.
Because I am a designer, some basic drawing lessons could be possible :)
