An Indian born and raised in Dubai, UAE, I’ve suffered an identity crisis all my life. I am liberal and not religious! Puppies and waffles are my kryptonite. I studied architecture in Bangalore, India and worked in Dubai for 2.5 years after. I went back to India to work for an NGO and now I am in Barcelona for my masters in urban development!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love meeting people from different cultures and learning about their lives and their homes! I doubt there is a better platform for this cultural exchange! Also google won't tell you things that locals do, so seeing the city through their eyes is something I am really looking forward to.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I like acoustic, commercial, alternative, folk, etc Movies: I am into movies based on reality like blind side, wonder, etc. I like v for vendetta, 12 angry men, shutter island, ratatouille, easy a, the help are a few i could think of right now!

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I sneaked into a refugee camp in Europe for research work. They dint stop me at the gate because I am brown. Take that racism!
