I’m Nihal — a mountaineer, researcher, traveler and someone who believes life tastes best when lived with intensity. From climbing ice walls at dawn to writing academic papers past midnight, I thrive on passion in every form.

I travel not just to see new places… but to feel them — their people, cultures, mountains, stories and secrets. If you love deep conversations, star-lit valleys, spontaneous adventures and laughter that doesn’t need a reason, we’ll get along effortlessly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience just beautifully human connections — the kind you remember long after the journey ends. Someone open-minded, warm and unafraid to be real.

If you like people who are a mix of rugged mountains and soft poetry… we might just vibe. 😌🔥
