I'm Shikha from New Delhi. A typical network engineer who likes her job. Enjoys being the nerd in the field of engineering.

Apart from that I love meeting new people, maybe one of the reasons I joined Couchsurfing. ( yes new people with new cultures and lifestyles, I’m sorry Local Guys this is not a dating app so please stop. I have enough friends I need in Delhi)

Unfortunately I can't host people because of family issues but I can spend time and show you around Delhi. And I promise you won't regret it.

There is a famous quote that says to meet and get to know people who aren't of your age, your culture, your ethnicity! Which truly keeps me going, you learn from every person you meet, every age group, different countries. It's always fun to have friends around the world.

Another weird hobby of mine is Motivating People. Strangely enough I read books to how to motivate people, I find strange comfort in that.
Recently I have started taking a lot of interests in Philosophy , it's gives me a perspective.

Musically, Coldplay is in my veins. I enjoy bike Riding a lot. Mixing around with new people is probably the best quality about me. I practice yoga on regular basis, I'm fairly new but getting there :)

I'm into Football. RMCF supporter, Hala Madrid!!

Unhealthy obsession with Cupcakes And Pizzas
Animal Lover (duhhh), owns a dog(edit :he passed away) who is a pain but can't be without him. Started doing yoga for sometime now and I think it keeps me sane. I love BTS, I find solace in their music and existence.

I maintain a travel journal about places I wanna visit. I think it's time to stop collecting and start exploring !!

Edit:
People who are in Delhi and living here please avoid sending me messages for coffee or beer. I have to add this because its getting out of hand. I overlook genuine requests sometimes. I will reciprocate your emotions. If you're eager to meet, I will be more than excited. If you aren't much of a talker , neither am I ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Main purpose definitely meeting people around the world! Everyone has something to offer. What better way to make friends around the world. I know how helpful people have been during my travels. I want to help as many travellers as I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done paragliding, parasailing etc etc but one amazing thing which I did in my opinion was saving a dog who was stuck in the fences for a really long time. That day I felt my real purpose of being a Human : )
