ABOUT ME
I'm new to this. But better late than never. Unfortunately I haven't travelled for a while.
I stay with my family in Mumbai, and that means there is no room in the house for hosting people. My loss! Thus I plan on meeting some surfers and showing them around the city, hanging out, watching Bollywood movies, etc.
I enjoy good conversation, and can talk about anything out there to talk about. I'm slightly introverted, I must warn you, but once I start talking there is no end to it. That's an exaggeration, but you're welcome to experience it first hand. I like reading, writing, singing, making short films, trekking, being fit, and I'm a total foodie - which kind of contradicts the 'being fit' aspect. I try to strike a balance.
I also enjoy company of different people. I'm unassuming and helpful. I wish I had a pet cat, but living with family has restrictions.
I'm currently trying to figure myself out. I haven't quite figured what I want to do as a career. That means I have lots of free time to socialise!
A year ago, I was studying at Queen's University, Kingston, Canada, doing film-production and creative writing. My experience there was the best thing to have happened to me. Met some real gems of people!
Hence, I want to meet more people, and share my experience of India with them, and learn about them and where they come from.
PHILOSOPHY
I could put one of the wisest quotes here. But truly, I believe in simple living and high thinking.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
In Canada I stayed at my friends' place in Montreal and Quebec city. Was an amazing experience. Travelled with my friends. Love the 'feeling'! My friend Clotilde would always 'feel' the vibes of a place as if they were material physical things.!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Camped outside in negative 15 degrees in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario! Yeah, and ice-skated in Toronto. haha. I skated more on my butt than on my feet! Still cherish it!
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm learning Spanish myself. A beginner. Not good enough to teach yet. But I can tell you about Indian culture and philosophy. Also about Indian cinema, and pretty much a lot of general knowledge. I'm definitely well-read.
