I’m Kush — a small-town-bred filmmaker and photographer from West Bengal, living between Kolkata and North Bengal. I’ve spent more than a decade working with different people in the Bengali film scene.

For most of my life, travel wasn’t really my thing — it was just for work or the occasional weekend trip. That changed when I started collaborating with travel companies. I began hitting the road more often, meeting people, exploring places, and it honestly shifted how I see everything.

Now I mostly take travel-related projects — work that helps fund my travels and keeps me on the road. My goal is simple: to experience new cultures, meet interesting people, and show my community how differently people live around the world — through my visual storytelling and grow as a person.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’m here to meet thoughtful travelers. Coming to Kolkata or North Bengal? Ping me—I can meet up, show you around, or help plan.
My living situation shifts between Kolkata and my hometown in North Bengal. I can’t host at home, and I can only host in Kolkata when my roommate is out of town. Either way, I’m happy to keep you company if you’re visiting either place.

兴趣

I am a big time movie buff, It's my passion and profession. Traveling is more like a new found interest for me, I'm far from being an experienced traveller. I spend most of my free time watching videos on YouTube, learning about things that I find intriguing or playing games on my computer.

音乐、电影和书籍

I mostly spend my time on YouTube watching educational content. I’m a movie buff — I watch all kinds of films and have seen about 90% of IMDb’s Top 250. I love music but don’t stick to any one genre. Reading is a habit I lost and I’m trying to bring back, though I do listen to audio stories — both fiction and non-fiction.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I’ve rescued two stray dogs who live with me now.

教，学，和分享

I’m introverted by nature, so I’m probably not the best company for partying or hanging out 24/7. But I’ve always been a good listener. Over the years, I’ve talked to many different kinds of people, which gave me a unique perspective on life.

I can teach a few camera tricks, share some health or self-help tips (I learn a lot about these), introduce you to my language and culture, and suggest some great movies and series. When it comes to learning and sharing, I’m curious about just about everything — and that’s one of the reasons I’m here.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Being a filmmaker, photographer, editor, and writer, I make professional-level videos and photos. I’d be more than happy if my skills are useful. Beyond that, I bring my time and company—pets usually adore me. I’d be utterly grateful if you’d like me to help document your place better. I’m good at telling stories through the lens.
