Hi! I’m Riya from India — a curious, respectful, and open-minded traveler who loves experiencing places through people rather than checklists. I come from a background in business analytics and operations, but outside work I’m an athlete at heart (polo, skating, horse riding) and a creative soul who enjoys art, music, and meaningful conversations.
I value kindness, discipline, and shared laughter, and I’m always grateful for the little moments that make travel memorable.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe the best travel experiences come from human connections. Couchsurfing lets me explore cities through local eyes, exchange stories, and build friendships across cultures — not just visit places, but truly experience them.
