About Me

Update 2024: Working remotely, would be travelling in India and SE Asia in early 2025.

Travel enthusiast, foodie and good cook. Quit my boring job in 2018 to study in Austria. Minimalist, punctual and flexible.
I can easily qualified as a climate and capitalism refugee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is the best tool to come across local people and see the hidden gems of the place which is otherwise impossible to stumble upon. I believe in connections and compatibility, and feel societal norms are overrated.

Interests

I am passionate about hitchhiking and has taken me to many places, stories and people in India and abroad.
I love meeting new people from different backgrounds, know about their life, share their experience and my thoughts, travel stories and journey of life, I have learnt to become a good listener lately :), .. Also I am a big foodie and consider myself a good cook, I love to experiment with the food and improvise based on available ingredients, which is the soul of Indian cooking.
I have interest in Dark places and I have absolutely no/any attraction toward touristic places..
