➤ I'm a new couchsurfer!

My name is Anjali, and I'm a third-year college student studying finance and accounting at the University of Georgia. Growing up, I spent my summers in Bangalore, India, where my family is from.

I love Bollywood and Indian classical dance, and guide weekly Heartfulness meditation classes. (great stress reliever - try it!) I'm currently completing an internship in sustainability studies, and enjoy learning about how to make the world a greener place through corporations and lifestyle habits. I'm learning Spanish and speak French at an intermediate level. Through travel, I'm getting better at editing and taking videos to document my experiences - check out my YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXw2DFjiMBgBwF3nLfwJgGw?view_as=subscriber

My family and I have traveled to many countries for vacations and meditation retreats, and I love hearing others' stories and perspectives.

Starting in January, I can possibly host people on the weekends (Friday/Saturday nights only) because I live with roommates.
