I am currently a fourth year student at the University of Toronto, studying Geography/City Studies and International Development Studies. I am currently working as Project Documentation and Coordinator for 10 months in Kathmandu at local NGO. I am also conducting my thesis research on women in the Terai and their ability to navigate and reimagine different spaces (the intersections of Dalit, Madhesi, Tharu, Muslim women in public, economic and private space).

I really enjoy doing active things, and Nepal is the space for it! Otherwise, my hobbies include reading at the many coffee shops in patan, weekly yoga and cooking/eating with others! (also super into post colonial theory)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I been living in Kathmandu for 6 months and would love to meet some long term residents of here - to make friends and have good conversations. I am also down to anything active or trekking trips that might be happening! I am also down for board game nights, book clubs or drinks - I'm a pretty flexible person.
