About Me

I am the people I meet, the places I explore, the experiences I have had. I feel change is the only constant and what makes me myself is that I consciously live in the present. I am a quiet observer flowing with ease in the river of life. I deeply love nature.

I'd love to meet people who appreciate stillness. I enjoy knowing about any and everything under the sky.
I love to bake and cook. Making with hands is therapeutic to me!

Professionally I am a passionate maker of Custom Bikepacking Bags a Photographer and Stylist.
I'm either sewing or designing a new bag most days whilst I appreciate the nuances of everyday life.

I love being around trees.. rivers.. somewhere I can feel the wind in my hair.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe every person that lands onto my path of the journey of life has a role to play, be it just a little one - a part of me is the people and places I go to...
So my 'nindo' is to meet new people share ideas, spread positivity and learn like a child learns - open heartedly.

Positive vibes only.

Interests

Walks in nature, observing nature, foraging, experimental cooking, roaming museums and art galleries, I love photographing people and the play of light and shadow, sewing and hearty conversations!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music that touches the soul, be it any language. My current favourite musician is Jahnvi Harrison. More of an instrumental lover.

I love how reading is so expansive, I've been building up on the habit and I'm getting inclined towards Spirituality, Buddhism. I love a good romance novel. One book that touched me is "The Heart Sutra by Osho".
Four seasons in Japan, The collected regrets of Clover, Discussions on Youth, I am that, Sophie's World, The courage to be disliked...

I love Period Films, Horror, Medical drama, a good film made through a documentary approach, Romcom. My favourite one is The Vow.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would never forget 2016 - walking down the streets of Florence until almost morning with a 6 hours old Chilean friend, spotting street sign art by an artist called Clet Abraham.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you to take your business marketing a notch up.
If you're feeling culinarily adventurous, let's spend a lazy noon cooking a plantbased spread and share a hearty meal together.
I'm a good listener, let's talk!

Eager to listen to your stories and to tell mine.
