About Me

I'm here for real connections, stories over screens, and the kind of travel where strangers become friends. Couchsurfing, to me, is the best way to experience a place—through its people. I'm building a food company back home in India, and I’m always inspired by how others live, eat, and create. I believe every couch has a story, and I’m here to listen, share mine, and build something beautiful from it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travel is about people, not just places. I’m here to share moments with strangers who don’t stay strangers for long. Couchsurfing feels like the perfect antidote to tourist traps—it’s raw, real, and human. I’ve always believed that the best meals, stories, and friendships come from unexpected places. This is where I want to find them—and share mine too.
