Overview
About Me
I am 24-year-old design research student at ENS paris-saclay. I have explored a bit of Europe already and wanted to explore more and meet new people, make new memories and find cultural similarities and differences. I am like an onion, in layers and sometimes strong in values and beliefs. I love everything about life and I am always glad that i am happy to be alive and experience all of it !! I love talking about politics, arts, architecture, music and whatnot. I also happen to have eccentric taste in music and arts, a big fan of romanticism and Bauhaus !!

Music, Movies, and Books
I have a long list of genres that I like - Progressive metal and rock, Metal and Rock, Jazz, Jazz Rap. I recently got the chance to see Porcupine Tree, Sigur Ros and Alt-J. I have many artists on my list. I am also a cinephile of some sort !! I watch some movies as a comforting getaway maybe to have that sensation when I watched it for the first time. I am currently reading Design for Pluriverse and Evocative Objects !! (Designer Books mostly)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I did my first hitchhiking last year from Paris to Nantes and back, which I am proud of. This also led me to the conclusion that there are all kinds of people everywhere. I can never generalise !! To add to it, last month I went to Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven and got back hitchhiking again, took me more than 18h but it was worth it !!
Teach, Learn, Share
I am often so fascinated how my mind operates so I will always be happy to share a thing or two about my life experience so far and some eccentric anecdotes from my travels. I can perhaps also share some pictures which you can also find here - (https://sgraphs.com/tagged/travels)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Love and care and respect and mutual understanding of the boundaries between individuals or couples or families !! I am a global citizen who tries my best to see a human as a human, without biases or prejudices. I will try to share what life has taught me, the people who I came across and my experiences !!
Also, I cook very good Indian food and would love to share a few recipes or tips from my ma and grandma !!
