Hello! I’m an adventure-loving soul who recharges by planning 30k-step treks instead of resting—yes, that’s my version of taking a break! I’m passionate about trekking, connecting with new people, and diving into different cultures and their stories. Art has a special place in my heart, and sometimes I just sing my heart out when the moment feels right. Whether it’s a mountain trail or a deep conversation, I’m always up for something meaningful and fun

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I’m here to connect with people, not just places. For me, travel is about sharing stories, learning cultures firsthand, and building genuine connections beyond typical sightseeing.
Music, Movies, and Books
I’m deeply into art and music—especially Carnatic fusions, Tyagaraja krithis, and keerthanas. Crime thrillers and defense-based movies are my go-to screen picks. I’m not much of a bookworm, but The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari truly shifted my perspective and stayed with me
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Without knowing the route, where internet is not accessible….i just followed the stream nd found waterfalls
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach hand painting and pencil sketching, and I’m always working on some DIY project. I love sharing my travel experiences, life lessons, and I’m currently learning the ukulele. Pottery is next on my to-learn list.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I’d love to share stories from my travels, teach hand painting or pencil sketching, and play a bit of ukulele as I’m learning. If you’re into DIY or crafts, I’m always up for a creative session. I can also cook some delicious homemade food and would be happy to treat you to a taste of my culture!
My Interests
Mountains over beaches, temples over pubs, deep conversations over small talk, and quality time over quantity. I love exploring nature through long treks, discovering the history and energy of ancient temples, and getting to know people through meaningful exchange
