Overview
About Me
Hey there! 👋 I'm Ben, an adventurous soul with a passion for exploring new cultures and learning more about places and people. I'm currently living in Ottawa, Canada and am planning to travel around other parts of the country. I work as a researcher in the public sector and I love to listen to other people's experiences and stories.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
While I might initially come across as shy, I'm eager to break out of my shell and connect with fellow adventurers on Couchsurfing. I believe that the best way to truly experience a place is through the eyes of locals, which is why I'm here on Couchsurfing! My current goal? To explore Canada, soaking in the diverse cultures and unique perspectives of each city from the locals.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music taste is very mixed. I listen to rap, folk, pop. Currently obssessed with "The paper kites" and "Chance Pena". My close friends says i have an old soul coz i listen to a lot of Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, etc.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In 2018 I did a 25 day trip through Germany, Netherlands and Denmark. I lived in a small coastal city called "Fredericia" in Denmark for 18 days then with a group of strangers. I have some of my best/fondest memories from that trip.
I'm currently planning a 3-4 day solo road trip to Quebec during end of May. Looking for places to stay, things to do, recommendations and people to meet.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm an self taught amateur musician and play a bit of guitar. Will be traveling with my guitar so I can maybe teach some simple guitar chords or a song to play?
Countries I’ve Lived In
Canada, India, Singapore
