My name, Vivek, apparently means a person who can differentiate good from bad. Not quite sure I can though haha. I was born in India, brought up in Abu Dhabi and now work in Japan. I like solo travel, discovering music, reading non fiction, watching Anime/TV Series/ movies, exploring the city etc...
I consider myself an outdoor person, but some weekends I just stay in my room and binge watch something on some streaming platform.

** HOUSE RULES**
- I sleep early and wake up early so please get back home by 9:30 PM 🙏 (Fridays and Saturdays are exceptions)
- Try to leave the place exactly like you found it 🧹
- Let me know when you’re coming in advance, since I have to be home when you do and arrange my schedule accordingly. 🕰️
- Last but not least just be nice and spread positivity and kindness 🙂

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to truly understand a place is through its people — not guidebooks or tourist attractions. Couchsurfing feels like an open door to real conversations, cultural exchange, and spontaneous adventures that don't fit neatly on an itinerary. I'm here to meet kind souls from around the world, share stories over home-cooked meals or evening walks, and hopefully leave each place with a new friend (or five).

Also… hotels don’t usually offer deep chats about life, music, or your grandma’s secret chai recipe. :)
