Hello guys!!! I am a curious person and wants to know, learn and understand things I am not familiar with and meeting and talking to people (along with reading books) is a good way to feed my curiosity. I love hiking, cooking, I do sports (volleyball and badminton) I wish to run more often thank I do and I love camping. I am more of a outdoor person. I am keen to know different cultures, languages as well as food 🤤 and if not travelling myself I get to know these from meeting travellers. I am easy-going and cheerful person and crack lame jokes (sorry). I am from India and have lived in Spain before! Moved to France in October 2022. And making Clermont-Ferrand home for the next I-don’t-know-how-long!! Hosting : We are a couple, me and my partner, Sam, we will be hosting you in our apartment in Clermont-Ferrand with a private bedroom! Thank you! Cheers!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am on Couchsurfing to make travelling a nice experience and a bit economical for everyone! Especially if you are female traveller, I want to be part of making the travelling experiences safer!
Music, Movies, and Books
I like thriller and suspense movies. Comedy is my kind too. Books: Educated by Tara Westover, Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi, The help by Kathryn Stokett, Things a Bright Girl Can Do by Sally Nicholls. Music: I have quite random range of taste in music. Some of my favourites: Green Day, Bryan Adams, Owl city, Carla Bruni and Troye Sivan
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Moved to a different continent for my studies! . Walked 120+km from Tui to Santiago de Compostella (Camino de Santiago) . Paid-off my student loan!! . Ran 10km run in San Silvestre Vallecana-2019 among 40,000 participants with crazy energy! Rescued a baby squirrel and reared it for three days!
Teach, Learn, Share
I like sharing experiences and stories more than anything. I am curious about anything and everything so I will ask and talk about random things. Human behaviors and evolution and cultural behavior is something I love to observe and learn because it fascinates me. I love cooking so it would be great to exchange our recipes and skills!
What I Can Share With Hosts
I am sure I have a lot to talk about the cultural diversity and languages as I grew up in India and spent a quite a lot of time in Spain and now living in France! I love talking about science (I am a researcher). I am very good at making shy people comfortable as I know how it is to be the shy one. Cooking
