CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Vikram, I'm a current engineering student in London. I love learning about new things and hope to achieve this in part by travelling and meeting new people.

I have a kind and well-natured disposition. Helping others is very important to me so I am involved in voluntary work in London. On the whole I am able to content myself in most environments, what is most important to me is the people I am with.

PHILOSOPHY

Our identities and lives are formed by the people we meet and know, it is our duty to encourage the best qualities in our fellow man so they may bring about the best qualities in us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to CouchSurfing but would like to get involved in this fantastic community and have the opportunity to travel around my own country and others and help others do the same.

Interests

I am a reasonably active person, I enjoy cycling and running particularly and participate in running races for charity. I also enjoy playing badminton.

I play the piano and enjoy a variety of music. I like to read, particularly sci-fi and fantasy.

I have been learning French for a number of years now and hope to study in France for my final year of university.
