Hello there,

I am shiwani, born and brought up in the capital of India (Delhi)
I love travelling and meeting new people, I have travelled a bit in Asia, a lot in Europe and now I am exploring the Gulf.
I moved to the Emirates just before the Pandemic. Other than the heat I absolutely love everything about this country,. The people., The food,. Every weekend there is a new place to go and explore different areas.
I love exploring new places, meeting the locals, exchanging experiences and things I've learnt in my Journey. I would love to meet up and show you around, if you're ever in the Emirates.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from different nationalities and cultures. Make friends along the way, learn a thing or two about their city, country, culture, and how and what made them the way they are :)

Interests

I love to cook, bake, mix drinks and try new recipes
Love travelling and visiting places to know the place better and not to just do the touristy stuff.
Love listening to good music but I don't like it to be loud.
I love meeting people and socializing. But I hate small talks., So if you want to hang around, please have something substantial to talk about.

• reading
• music
• live music
• meeting new people
• trying new things
• eating good food

Music, Movies, and Books

Music usually depends on my mood and I generally like the music that is soft to my ears, even if I cannot understand the lyrics

Not that I am a regular reader, because I cannot manage time to complete the books that I start.

Currently reading: Rescued by a Feminist by Saloni Chopra

I love watching movies and tv shows. The list is too long

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I successfully hitchhiked from Milan to South of Italy and met a lot of amazing people along the way. Came across places I would have never gone to if I were travelling by public transport.

-Spent a few months with a family at the farmhouse in Abruzzo Hills for volunteer workaway in the farm.
