Hi!!! I am Disha and I am that person whose step count is off the charts while travelling, who compulsively takes public transport, and eats a lot of street food.

I have a degree in Tourism and Travel Management, and I have been working for various travel companies for the past few years. I used to work as a tour guide in Mumbai before moving to China in 2024.

I was studying Mandarin in China for 10 months and I absolutely loved my time there. That's also where I first started couchsurfing and met some amazing people.

I live in Bangalore now and work remotely. I am looking forward to meeting anyone traveling to Bangalore until I start traveling again!

I follow the norms of responsible tourism.

I am a vegetarian but I respect all lifestyle choices. I always clean up after myself. I am a feminist.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I created an account on Couchsurfing when I was a student with no income and could only do budget travel. But, my experience with the app has been so good, that I have started relying on it for half of my social life! I love meeting people from around the world and some of the best ones are on this app!

音乐、电影和书籍

I listen to all genres from old and new Bollywood songs to old and new English songs. My favourite English songs are Total Eclipse of the Heart and I Want It That Way. I mostly listen to Chinese OST but my favourite song is 童话.
I watch a lot of MCU, Pixar and Disney movies. I love watching horror movies!
I would choose books over movies. I don't have a favourite genre but I love discussing books like 1984, Animal Farm, Harry Potter, Pride and Prejudice, Sherlock Holmes, etc.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

My life so far has mostly been very conventional and uneventful. I lived with my parents until September 2024 (as is the norm in India), grew up, studied, and worked in the same city. It was only in 2024 that I decided I wanted to move out and live by myself. I got a scholarship to study in China and I am pretty satisfied with myself. The only truly amazing thing I can think of though is the solo trek I went on in April 2024 on the Himalayas. That was quite an adventure.

教，学，和分享

I am definitely interested in language exchange. I can speak English well and I would like to learn Mandarin or any other language the host speaks.
I am also a decent cook and would happily make Indian food for the host.
I also love dancing and can teach Bollywood dance.
I am up for learning everything and anything.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Family recipes of Indian food if my host is interested in food. I can cook for them and clean up after. While I might not immediately have Indian souvenirs on me, I would definitely send it to them later.
