About Me

They say home is where the heart is but my heart is wild and free !!

New to the couchsurfing community.

Born in the land of high passes, i come from a small town in the beautiful ladakh region of India. Located in the trans himalayan ranges, ladakh is a cold desert with extreme weather and scarce resources.
Since childhood i had a deep connection with nature and found my solace in the valleys, mountain tops, riverbanks and the canopy of the forests. The urge to witness places that i have never seen and to experience the cultures and lives of humans in all the far reaches of our world has always been my passion. Professionally, i am an outdoor educator and have been nature's spokesperson for the past five years.
I love meeting new people and exploring places and discovering spots that feel like home. I like climbing, mountain biking, swimming, skateboarding and all other adventure sports. I really enjoy music of all sorts and i think i am a pretty good cook.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to spend a few days in a new place. You meet like minded people and share wisdom from all over the world. It makes travelling a much more meaningful and valuable experience.
