Hey, I’m Shruti! I love adventuring to new places and meeting new people. I enjoy being outdoors and learning about other cultures, especially through food. I'd love to explore the local culture and lifestyle of as many new spots as I can.

I currently live in San Francisco, and combined my interests in psychology and design to become a UX/UI designer.

In my spare time, I enjoy being outside, playing tennis, camping, hiking, listening to music, watching food videos on youtube, trying out new eats, and just chillin with my peeps. I love wandering around San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland in the East Bay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To explore new places, meet new friends, and eat the local food.

It's really sweet to see people opening their homes for guests and new friendships! Being able to experience the cities I'll be in, via the suggestions of a host would be cool!

I’m a part of the LGBTQ+ community, I'd love to check out the local queer scene as well. :] 🌈

I want to visit Ireland, Canada and more cities in the U.S. next!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all music. I'm a big fan of pop music, especially Egyptian/Arabic pop. I grew up with bands like ABBA, Sum 41, and Indian Bollywood and classical music. I love EDM, hip hop, fusion world instrumental music and much more. Currently listening to some Kehlani and Demi Lovato. :p

I recently saw "Call Me By Your Name" and loved it.

I'm trying to get myself to finish this book about design. Internet articles and videos have taken over a bit, but I'll find a fun book from time to time.

I've seen Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer play tennis live. 😬
