About Me

I am a 22 year old travel enthusiast from India. I love exploring new cities, cultures and cuisines. I also love cooking and making fusion dishes. Being a design graduate I like making illustrations and photography. My dream is to travel to more than 50 countries by the time I am 25 and I like maintaining a travel diary and sketchbook. Also, I love postcards. I prefer mountains and valleys and being in sync with nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Planning to visit a few countries in Europe this October and would love to meet new people there. Couchsurfing I feel is the best way to know the locals and understand their culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been to some very remote villages in India, lived with the locals, cooked food with them, milked cows, made baskets and harvested crops. Througout I have sketched interacted and clicked photographs. It was indeed a humbling experience.
