About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making this journey called 'life' an unforgettable one!

ABOUT ME

I consider myself a traveller who enjoys visiting local attractions before tourist attractions, and meeting locals is key to get to the soul of each place. That is why I completely share CS's concept of hospitality.

I have been living in different parts of Europe and in India.

When I host I offer a clean place to sleep and when looking for a host I expect the same. Hygiene at home is to me rule number one!

Philanderers: please note that if a woman travels solo, it does not mean she is available! CS is NOT a dating site, please refrain from contacting me if you are trying to hook up. Thank you.

I try to do my part to make this planet better by eating vegan, and following a zerowaste lifestyle (avoid plastic and discharging unnecessary waste whenever I can).

Please make sure you read my profile before sending a couchsurfing request, and understand this is not about getting free accomodation.

Also, I wish people would change their belief system thinking other beings are on this planet to satisfy human's needs. Animals do not owe humans anything. They are not here to be enslaved, slaughtered, milked, skinned for wool, fur, used in medical testing or for entertainment or in carriages. Instead, they are on this planet to enjoy their lives as free individuals. Just like humans.

PHILOSOPHY:

Make good use of my power by being kind to all living beings.
