About Me

I’m an Engineer by profession, currently on a break trying to travel the world. I’m from Bangalore, India and have been lucky enough to visit 23 countries so far. Each journey has been a way for me to not only discover new places but also to learn more about myself and the people I meet along the way.
Travelling keeps me grounded and opens my mind to new perspectives about different cultures, experiences or even my own personal growth. I find joy in connecting with people who have good energy and a passion for sharing stories.

Also, I’m not looking to date. I just want to meet new people, have meaningful conversations, create lasting memories, build friendships or even travel buddies along the way.😊

I’m not hosting at the moment as I’m planning to move out of India soon, but once I settle in a new country, I’d love to start hosting. Couchsurfing is new for me, but I really enjoy meeting people and building meaningful connections.

If you're visiting my city before I leave, I’d be happy to show you around and help you find a place to stay. 😊🤗

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’ll be visiting Hong Kong and Taiwan in May— if anyone’s open to hosting, I’d really appreciate a place to crash.
Would be awesome to connect if we vibe well.☺️

Interests

I love hiking, camping, diving, snorkeling, kayaking, safaris and anything adventurous, which pushes me out of my comfort zone.
I enjoy long drives and finding hidden spots along the way. I love nature, wildlife, and animals and I try to volunteer whenever I can, especially if it involves animals.
I’m also someone who loves trying local food (and yes, local drinks too!), visiting museums, exploring cafes, nightlife and seeing what makes each place unique.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy movies that make me think or feel something deeply. I like books that explore human nature, self-growth, or travel experiences.
I also enjoy reading stories that offer a new perspective on life.

Music? Totally depends on my mood. Could be soft acoustic one day and energetic world music the next.
I’m always curious to hear what others are into, there’s something special about discovering a song or book through someone else.😊

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to help out around the house, cook a meal, or bring something small from my country if you'd like. I’m respectful of your space and grateful for any kindness, happy to share experiences, conversations, a genuine connection and build friendship. 😊🥰
