About Me

Hey there! I'm Sajid, a passionate digital creator and traveller on a mission to explore the world, one adventure at a time. With a background in Computer Science and Engineering from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology and Computer Science and Technology from Jakir Hossain Institute of Polytechnic, I bring a tech-savvy perspective to my journeys.

What I Love

My heart beats for meeting new people, immersing myself in diverse cultures, and savouring the flavours of different cuisines. From the bustling streets of local markets to the serene landscapes off the beaten path, I find joy in every travel experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in the power of genuine connections and the beauty of shared experiences. Couchsurfing, to me, is more than just finding a place to stay; it's an opportunity to create authentic connections with locals and fellow travellers alike. I'm here to not only explore new destinations but to immerse myself in the heart of each place through the eyes and stories of those who call it home.

I've always found that the best travel memories are made when you step outside your comfort zone and embrace the unknown. Couchsurfing provides a unique platform for cultural exchange, fostering understanding, and building bridges between people from different walks of life. I'm excited about the prospect of meeting open-minded individuals, sharing stories, and creating a global network of friends who share a passion for exploration and discovery.

By opening up my space to fellow travellers or connecting with hosts, I hope to contribute to the tapestry of diverse experiences that make each journey memorable. Let's not just travel, but let's embark on a journey of friendship, cultural exchange, and the shared joy of discovery. Looking forward to the adventures and connections that Couchsurfing has in store!

Music:
I find my rhythm in a diverse mix of genres, from indie and electronic beats to classic rock and soulful melodies. Some of my all-time favourites include artists like Alt-J, Florence + The Machine, Daft Punk, and Fleetwood Mac. I'm always on the lookout for new tunes that resonate with different moods and moments.

Movies are my escape, and I enjoy a wide spectrum of cinematic experiences. Whether it's thought-provoking indie films, epic adventures, or classic comedies, I appreciate a well-crafted story.

I'm open to recommendations and love discovering hidden gems.

Books:
I'm an avid reader with a penchant for immersive storytelling and thought-provoking narratives. From the magical worlds crafted by Haruki Murakami to the mind-bending tales of Christopher Nolan, I enjoy exploring fiction that challenges perspectives. Non-fiction works on technology, psychology, and travel also find a spot on my bookshelf. Currently, I'm diving into Atomic Habits by

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Embarking on a spontaneous road trip through the picturesque landscapes of Murshidabad to Ranchi stands out as one of the most incredible experiences of my life. With no fixed itinerary, we let the open road guide us, discovering hidden gems, charming towns, and breathtaking views along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
As a Bengali with a deep appreciation for the rich tapestry of my culture, I'm eager to share the vibrant traditions, language, and flavors that define the Bengali way of life. Whether it's the artistry of our festivals, the warmth of our hospitality, or the poetry woven into our language, I'm excited to offer a glimpse into the cultural nuances that make being Bengali a unique and beautiful experience.

Learn:
Cultural exchange is a two-way street, and I'm genuinely curious about the diverse cultures that shape the world. Whether you're from a different part of India, another country, or carry a unique cultural background, I'm keen to learn about your traditions, customs, and the stories that make your culture special. Let's bridge the gaps and build understanding through the richness of our shared experiences.

Share:
Let's create a cultural kaleidoscope where we exchange not just stories but the very essence of our heritage. From sharing traditional Bengali recipes to celebrating festivals together, I'm excited about the prospect of blending our cultures. Through this exchange, we can create a space where traditions merge, friendships flourish, and a beautiful mosaic of shared experiences unfolds. Together, let's celebrate the beauty of diversity and foster a deeper appreciation for the cultural richness that surrounds us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cultural Exchange:
I bring the vibrant colours of Bengali culture with me. From sharing stories about our traditional festivals like Durga Puja to introducing you to the rhythmic beats of Rabindra Sangeet, I'm eager to weave a cultural tapestry that enriches our time together.

Culinary Adventures:
Get ready for a gastronomic journey through the Flavors of Bengal. I love cooking and would be delighted to prepare some authentic Bengali dishes for us to Savor together. Whether it's the aromatic spices of a fish curry or the sweetness of rasgulla, your taste buds are in for a treat.

Tech Talks and Insights:
As someone with a background in Computer Science and Engineering, I can share insights into the fascinating world of technology. Whether you're interested in coding, software development, or just curious about the latest tech trends, we can explore these topics together.

Language Lessons:
Bengali is not just a language; it's a melody. I can offer basic Bengali language lessons, teaching you common phrases and expressions. It's a fun way to connect with the locals when you're exploring Bengali-speaking regions.

Digital Creativity:
If you're intrigued by digital art, photography, or content creation, I'd love to share my creative endeavors with you. We can explore the digital realm together, and I can even capture moments of our journey in a unique and artistic way.

Travel Stories and Tips:
Having explored various places, I've collected a treasure trove of travel stories and tips. Whether you're planning your next adventure or simply enjoy hearing about different cultures, I'm here to share experiences and provide insights that might enhance your own travels.

Open Conversations:
Beyond everything, I bring an open heart and a willingness to engage in meaningful conversations. Let's share our life stories, dreams, and perspectives, creating a bond that goes beyond the physical space we share.

I'm excited about the prospect of not just being a guest but a cultural ambassador, creating moments that linger in our memories long after our paths diverge.
