Hello! I'm a software engineer from India, currently working at Booking.com, Amsterdam. I'm a travel and adventure enthusiast, and have visited several countries in Europe and Asia in the past year. I'm fascinated by the diversity of people and love getting to know different cultures and backgrounds, and am also a big follower of science and technology. I'm very chill and friendly, always ready to have good conversation and of course, beer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing provides a unique way of meeting diverse people from all around the world and spending some awesome time with them, and I've seldom been disappointed. Most of the people I've hosted were amazing and I had a lot of fun, and some also turned into good friends, so I'm grateful for that.

Interests

I'm always up for doing something new. I like adventure of any kind, especially something that pushes me out of my comfort zone. When I'm not doing that, I mostly play games on my PC, or hang out with my friends and enjoy. I've lost quite a bit of fitness due to travelling and my goal is to get it back as soon as possible so I can resume my adventure activities.

Other than that my interests include table tennis, house dance, and science, particularly Astrophysics, Astronomy and Particle Physics.

What I Can Share with Hosts
