As a part-time policy analyst and full-time MA student, I am currently working to finish my thesis. I write about trans-national intellectual movements in the early-nineteenth century and, as you may have guessed, I love to travel.

As I've mentioned, I'm an MA candidate at the University of Ottawa currently working on my thesis. I study intellectual history in early nineteenth-century British India with a focus on print culture and debates over a free press in India.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Before settling down in the national capital, I travelled broadly and used Couch Surfer on a number of occasions. I vetted locations and found exciting opportunities through the forums and I would love to give back.
