I’m Yogesh, originally from India and now based in the UK. I came to Oxford for my MBA at Saïd Business School and stayed because I liked the community and pace of life. I travel slowly and enjoy exploring everyday parts of a city as much as the landmarks. I keep things neat, follow house rules and wind down early on most nights. I’m easy to get along with and happy to help around the house, including simple cooking, chopping or cleaning up after meals. I appreciate thoughtful hosts and good conversation.

If you want a temporary line for your trip, add this at the top of your profile: Currently in Paris volunteering at UNLEASH World. Out most days, calm evenings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing to meet people who see travel as more than sightseeing. I like understanding how people live in their own cities, what their routines are, and what they enjoy about their neighbourhood. I’m happy to help with small things at home or share a quiet evening chat. When I’m more settled in the UK, I hope to host travellers as well.
