Hi I am Raj Desai, I live in Pasadena, California(Suburb of Los Angeles) I'm currently a student studying Product Design at Art Center College of Design. I am 1st generation Indian-American.
Recently I backpacked around Europe solo, best experience of my life. The trip opened my mind to so much, discovered what I like and don't like, and made some unforgettable memories.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am couch surfing to meet new people, making friends abroad, and learn about different cultures.

I love to make friends with open-mindedness personality and share interests in networking. Recently I backpacked around Europe met so many people, made life long friends, and I hope to the same with my host and surfers!

I love to travel, cycle, play sports. I am interested in doing extreme sports. Sketching, designing, building things, solving problems is in my blood as a designer.

Sharing and learning about new technologies and working on circuits.
