Fully vaccinated. Originally from India but living in the US since 2015. Moved initially to upstate NY for grad school and now I live in Seattle. I grew up in a tropical place and I love heavy rainfall especially if it is not cold! I am not a fan of winter but I love an excuse to sit by the fire and watch it snow while sipping on a hot chocolate/cider :) Fall is my favorite season, especially in NE USA, it's magical!

I started traveling after moving to the US and now I combine that with my love of motorcycles. I ride a medium size dual sport motorcycle (it's not loud fyi :))

I'm constantly trying to find the right balance of embracing my wanderlust. I have a remote job, I enjoy riding motorcycles, and I daydream of pursuing nomadic lifestyles.

I enjoy going to live shows, drum circles, museums, galleries, dive bars, and bantering with sassy/funny folks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Getting over my inhibitions, fear of traveling and meeting strangers. I want to travel through small(er) US towns and cities.

Interests

I'm a social person who enjoys meeting strangers and loves banter. I get very curious about people and cultures.

• motorcycles
• mathematics
• travelling
• sexuality
• reading,

Music, Movies, and Books

Classic rock, grunge, and Pink Floyd.

Sapiens, animal farm, kite runner, shantharam, 100 years of solitude, subtle art of not giving a fuck.

Good, bad and ugly. Jurassic Park, big fish, LOTR.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw a large truck, carrying a ship across a mountain range! That made no sense.
On the same trip in India, I saw couple of young men carrying their parents on a palanquin to holy sites as part of some ancient pilgrimage custom. I grew up in India and it still had me surprised.
I attended the largest and possibly oldest religious congregation of people on the banks of Ganges.
Herd of elephants, well camouflaged, moving through hills consisting large boulders (deccan plateau in India) - it feels like the mountain boulders are moving, cause they look the same from below.
Ganga and yamuna converging and three oceans/seas converging at the southern tip of India.
Mount Rainier - every day in Seattle!

Teach, Learn, Share

I come from a very unique culture which gives me a unique perspective. I grew up in a land that knows magic, Gods/Goddesses, and with rich culture and traditions. I am a story teller and love sharing my culture the folklore I grew up on! The most common animal I saw growing up was an elephant and I lived in a city, ask me about it :D

I'm constantly learning in life and work. I like to read philosophy but I usually take a long time to get through them. I day dream a lot!

Happy to share my culture and cook you authentic Indian food!
