Hi,
I am Sonal, a story teller.

I love literature, cinema, travel and philosophy. I am an undergrad in Media Studies (majors in audio visual communication) and a post grad in liberal education. I am currently a World Merit fellow in India, collaborating on a global project for gender equality. I am also researching alternative education and experential learning. My work takes me to different places and people and I absolutely love exploring cultures and perspectives that it offers. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Not all who wander are lost."
Some wander because they thrive on curiousity and experience. I am one of them.
One of my favourite words is 'Fernweh' , meaning a craving for travel.

I want to travel the world and do it with utmost sincerity.
I am on Couchsurfing to find friends who will help me explore new places & cultures and introduce me to their own. I'm here to find amazing hosts, host some amazing people and meet fellow wanderers.
