Hey there, I'm Ravi, a scientist currently calling Nicosia, Cyprus home. My academic journey has taken me through Austria and Czechia as an Erasmus Mundus Scholar, specializing in architecture, urban planning, and data science. By day, I'm deeply engrossed in research, and by night, I'm the proud founder of a startup focusing on Spatial development and Artificial Intelligence.

Embracing my inner traveler, I'm on a mission to explore new horizons and make meaningful connections. I have a soft spot for live music and believe that every stranger is just a friend waiting to happen. Alongside my professional pursuits, I'm passionate about sharing stories, experiences, and creating lasting memories.

In my free time, you'll find me dreaming about the day I can toss everything aside and embark on a spontaneous backpacking adventure with a one-way ticket in hand. I genuinely enjoy the company of diverse individuals who share a love for exploration and good vibes.

Excited to meet fellow adventurers and make the most of each journey!

Cheers to new friendships! 🤘😀

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hate the idea of getting to a new country or city and spending half of the time a luxious or semi luxious hotel watching TV, basically doing same set of things we do at home, instead paying for it.

Instead, when I travel I want meet people, have a conversation about any darn thing as long as we feel connected and curious. Being able to see a place from a native's perspective is something, i have missed in most of my previous travels. I would also love to switch side and be a host to anyone who is Travelling to India (& Czech & Austria). Even if I am not able to provide them a place at my home, I would love to partner them in their travel around places, help them get things and see things from my perspective and treat them with some of our spicy cuisines or may be cook some food for you! Looking forward to meeting and hosting you. Let me know if you need any suggestion. Cheers!

I love this idea of sharing an honest bond across borders!
