I'm an Indian, was born in a city near Agra (It's famous for Taj Mahal, in case you didn't knew). Right now I'm pursuing my bachelor in Software Engineering in Yekaterinburg, Russia. So as I love traveling, and Russia is a very vast country, during these years of studies I want to travel as much as possible during my free time. It has always been a dream for me to travel around the world, and I this this is my first step to this. I've been in Russia for around two years, and in the first year as I didn't knew Russian, I was very afraid to travel somewhere or go alone. But this year I want to overcome this fear, I've been to five cities in the past two months and now I'm planning to travel more. As I'm living in Yekaterinburg, it's convenient to travel both to east and west in Russia and this year I'm planning to cover the western Russia, and in the next few years the eastern parts to Vladivostok and Kamchatsky.

Also during my 17 years of life in India, I was an introvert. But as I came to Russia, everything changed. Right now I've a lot of friends here, and I think this is what I want to do all of my life, i.e., meet different people from different parts of the world.

About my hobbies, I worked as a photographer last summer in Chelyabinsk, I also like to cook (mostly Indian vegetarian food), I like to sing (just for my own happiness) but I'm not good at it. Apart from this, I like cycling, walking, listening to music.
I adore animals, I have two dogs at my home (in India)

P.S. - As I'm a foreigner here in Russia, I live in student dormitory. So I can't host people right now, but I can show you the city(a lot of people wrote me about it). So, feel free to write if you ever come to Yekaterinburg.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling alone, without making any plans.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If possible, I would really like to some interesting people (but unfortunately, I live in the university dorm, so it's not possible for now)
But, I can share about the stories of my life in India, teach you some basic words in Hindi, and share my experiences of living and traveling in Russia as a foreigner.
If you're in Yekaterinburg, can give you a company and show you some of my favorite places in the city. Apart, I'm a photographer, so can take some cool pictures of you too:)
