I used to travel a lot before 2020 and then, we all know what happened. Looking to get back on the road and challenge myself again.

I have a blog too (albeit rather inactive one) at www.mealsnboons.com, so check it out to know me better!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a great community for travelers, especially for ones like me who want to have authentic experiences and get a feel of the place through the eyes of locals.

Interests

Traveling, cooking, photography, stargazing and constantly learning new things. I’m pleasantly surprised by my own wide range of interests.

I also love picking up snippets of new languages, and immerse myself in reading about indigenous cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

If you watch Kiarostami and read Kafka, you are already my friend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finally took the plunge for a solo trip at 21, and have been continuing on that adventure ever since.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: How to survive in a foreign country, the science behind baking and how to make machines more intelligent (I am a Machine Learning Engineer by profession)!
Learn: Your culture, your stories, your favorite spots in your city
Share: A glass of wine?

What I Can Share with Hosts

A night out or a night in with experimental food and board games!
