I'm Shauli and I'm an avid traveler.
I find I learn much more by traveling than by staying at home.
"Le seul veritable voyage n'est pas d'aller vers d'autres paysages, mais d'avoir d'autres yeux".

I moved to Glasgow in 2021, where I pursue my PhD studies in the field of AI and Social Robotics.

I enjoy clubbing, going to galleries and museums, and exploring cities and neighbourhoods.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is a great way of meeting new people, and experiencing places as a local, and not as a tourist.
