This is my first try for couchsurfing so I'm trying my bit here as I start a new couchsurfing journey in a post pandemic world. I work as a well-being and inclusivity champion at my workplace other than my detailed job which is project management. I'm a kind, diverse and inclusive human being.

I've travelled the world and documented my travels and my gardening on my Instagram @MishterShanks. I also do a lot of cooking and baking in my free time and set up tables and run a series called "The Art of Setting Tables".

I am currently staying in a town near London, Hemel Hempstead and have been learning about gardening and Indian cooking and I'm planning to visit and travel nearby places.

A bit about me: I am a very social person but I also respect your privacy and I can accommodate accordingly. I'm happy to just come in the late evening to crash as well as hangout with you. I have lived in various flatshares earlier and have lived in India, Edinburgh, France, China and Oman. Im extremely neat and tidy and I've been making a lot of preserves in my arboretum in Hemel Hempstead.
