I am from Nepal and I recently graduated from university with a degree in Economics. I adore penguins and I like to think that penguins love me back as I am a passionate environmental and climate change academic and activist.

I am currently riding my bicycle across Europe before moving to Beijing for the next 2 years for a Masters where I will be studying more about China's evolving role in combating climate change. I've also got a hippie side to being a nerd - I backpacked for two years before starting university, I am a certified bicycle mechanic, and I love sleeping in tents.

I love meeting people who care about the living environment that surrounds them. I believe in sustainability, I am a Buddhist, I love endurance sports, and I love being in nature. My friends also tell me that I am a very good masseur.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To share stories with like-minded people!

I think we have so much more in common than our differences, and I love interacting with new people and making stories.

I move around a lot but can host people in Beijing starting this September.
