Hello in many languages!

You can call me Desi, a wannabe traveler and world citizen (one place at a time). And you can tell me to 'get lost' because that's what I am good at!

Whether it's literally finding my way in some winding streets, or getting lost in my own mindscape, losing my way is the way to find it. Makes sense? I think I lost you.

So come get lost with me! I will bring good coffee, better stories and the best company.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I am poor as a rat. Kidding aside, Couchsurfing is a good way of crashing into some stranger's place without being judged. And also, it is fun.
