About Me

Commenced travelling exodus in 2015. Indian but born and raised in New Zealand, I've lived in London, Leeds and now Glasgow.

I've travelled most of South East Asia, India, Morocco, New Zealand and now I'm looking to add the rest of Africa and Europe to my hit-list.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently making my way across the globe, next stop - Africa and Europe

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So whilst in the U.K. I'm happy to say that I did not become a 'Zone 1 Kiwi', that is, someone who only experiences living in London and doesn't attempt to branch outside. London is not the UK. So in my time here, I've lived in three different cities including London, Leeds and Glasgow.

In my time in Leeds I lost over 20kgs in three months - yay!

I can roll a roti.
