ABOUT ME

I'm originally from Mumbai. I absolutely love travelling (especially solo motor biking) and meeting new people. I recently did a solo trip to the Himalayas and feel it was one the best experiences I have had.

I've done my Masters from University of Sussex, UK. I've also lived in Germany for a while and have travelled to some interesting places in India, UK, Denmark, Czech Republic, Netherlands and Poland. I love music and I'm on it most of the time. Oh and I forgot to mention Scrabble and Chess. I'm obsessed with it.

I'm presently working in the social development sector, have previously scuba dived as a part of my job on marine biodiversity conservation. I was a journalist with The Times of India before I switched over to the NGO sector. I'm an aspiring filmmaker; have made 2 short commissioned documentaries so far. Let's see how far it goes.

Well, that's about me for now. You'll anyway know more about me when we meet up...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel that's the best way to connect with new people and enjoy new experiences while travelling in an unknown place.
