I am a statistician and data scientist, but I have always felt that life is meant for more than just a repetitive 9-to-5 routine. Currently, I am working in a field that is not entirely relevant to my degree, which might explain my dissatisfaction. However, my heart is always drawn toward discovering beautiful places, meeting incredible people, and experiencing life beyond conventional boundaries.

I have autism, which means I see the world differently—sometimes in ways that others might not understand, but always with a deep sense of wonder and curiosity. My mind finds patterns where others see chaos, and I find beauty in details that often go unnoticed. While social interactions can sometimes be challenging, they are also fascinating to me, and I love making meaningful connections with people who are open-hearted and kind.

I believe life should be a journey of exploration, filled with knowledge, creativity, and self-expression. I am always seeking experiences that make me feel truly alive, whether through traveling, learning something new, or simply engaging in deep, thought-provoking conversations. My ultimate goal is not just to exist but to live fully, embrace happiness, and leave a meaningful impact on the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling has always been my dream, not just to collect passport stamps but to learn from different cultures and form authentic friendships. Couchsurfing offers a space to meet new people, share personal stories, and dive into local lifestyles. It’s about building genuine connections, one conversation at a time, and experiencing the world in a way that no travel guide could ever provide.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, for its inspirational message about following one’s dreams.

All the Bright Places is a movie that resonates with me deeply because it touches on mental health, love, and the fragile beauty of life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Leaving my MPhil program in the first semester was a challenging decision that taught me the importance of listening to my intuition. It was a leap of faith that tested my resolve and ultimately brought me closer to understanding what I truly want in life.

Teach, Learn, Share
