Hello,

I appreciate your interest in my profile. I am a South Indian coming from a city called Bangalore. It’s been a year since I moved to Porto. I am doctoral student here. So, in brief about my profession, I am an engineer and I was previously in Germany for my masters. I am more than happy to host in this beautiful city of Porto.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it’s the best way to experience the locals where ever you go, and it’s a unique way to get to know travellers around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I have just started backpacking, but it would be my solo trip to France where I stayed there for three amazing days wandering around every nook and corner of Paris.

Teach, Learn, Share

Definitely the flavours of Indian cuisine👨‍🍳We can debate on science behind meditation, yoga and all the cultural practices in India & most of south Asian countries. If you are looking for a company to hitchhike, I am the right guy 😃 Hire a bicycle and go around the sea coast 🌊 Happy to learn and share

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have taken up interest in cooking lately coz I like to ooze out my research pressure 🙂 Since I am vegetarian, I would want to end the myths that salads are the only options, and show some awesome cuisine🤙🏻
