Hello Couchsurfers!

I am a 23 year old currently living in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and I love doing anything adventurous or outdoors. I love the opportunity to have the Rocky Mountains right on my doorstep so hiking is an avid interest of mine.

Originally from India, I've been living in Calgary for about half of my life, so I have a very balanced perspective of the cultural and social differences with my life in Canada versus my childhood in India.

My mother said that it took me a while to learn how to talk and that's probably why I talk so much as I'm making up for the lost time, so one thing you'll definitely get with me are some interesting conversations! I often have a problem saying "no" to things so I love trying anything and everything new (atleast once that is)

I hope to share some stories and adventures with you soon!

Pura Vida!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I love travelling and doing any adventurous activities, such as scuba diving, hiking, kayaking, as well as flying! Hoping to get my commercial flying license in the next few years!
I am coming to New Zealand at the end of the January, and then plan on heading from Gold Coast/Brisbane to Cairns in Australia, and then towards the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand and then finally onto Europe. I would love to meet fellow travelers as well as country natives to get a more immersive experience of your country!
