I am an undergraduate at Oxford University as well as the Founder and President of the Public Debate Initiative (publicdebateinitiative.org).

In my life, I hope to do two things: 1) change the world and 2) see the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my view, people are the essence of a country. If I want to learn about a country, then, I have to interact with its people! This website enables me to do so by hosting and visiting.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music - everything from Hans Zimmer to Kendrick Lamar. I especially like jazz, psychedelic rock, film scores, and melodic hip-hop music.

As movies go, I'm a big fan of anything by Tarantino, and generally prefer movies with interesting dialogues to their action-filled counterparts.

My love for reading almost matches my love for music. I recently rekindled my love for fiction and the last book I read was The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once kayaked in Bull Shark infested waters.
