Hi there! I'm Shubham Grover, and I'm thrilled to be a part of the Couchsurfing community. As an avid traveler and an open-hearted individual, I find great joy in welcoming fellow adventurers into my humble home.

I work with Booking.com, Amsterdam, as Product Manager and I didn’t use Chatgpt to write this bio 😂

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that diversity enriches our lives, and I'm eager to learn about your unique experiences, forge lasting friendships and create unforgettable memories.

Located in Amsterdam, my cozy abode is a sanctuary for wanderers seeking comfort, warmth, and a taste of local hospitality. I believe that traveling is not just about visiting new places; it's about immersing yourself in different cultures, connecting with diverse people, and creating lifelong memories.

In my Dutch home, you'll find a welcoming environment. My living room is a hub of fun and relaxation, featuring a piano, TV, some books, board games, work station, dining and plush couch that you can have as a cozy place for you to enjoy a good night's sleep, and a spare mattress, in case it’s needed. Additionally, I provide clean linens, pillows, and blankets to ensure your comfort.

Being an enthusiastic explorer myself, I understand the importance of insider tips and local insights. Whether you're interested in exploring historical landmarks, off-the-beaten-path trails, or vibrant cultural events, I'm here to guide you and share my knowledge of the area. From recommending must-visit attractions to sharing lesser-known gems, I'll ensure you make the most of your stay.

So, if you're looking for a hospitable host and a comfortable place to rest your weary feet during your travels, I would be honored to open my doors to you. While we're running around in our lives, it's important to pause, reflect and admire the beauty of the journey and not just the destination. What could be better than making new friends on the way?

Safe travels, and I look forward to hosting you soon!
Warm regards,
Shubham

Interests

In my spare time, I enjoy spending my free time reading books, playing piano, going to salsa classes, tennis sessions, playing poker and board games with my friends. If you're up for it, I'd be delighted to engage in these activities together, photography, or exploring the local art scene. However, I also respect your privacy and understand the need for personal space, so you're welcome to have your solitude whenever you desire.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a passionate foodie, I love sharing culinary experiences with my guests. I invite you to join me in the kitchen, where we can exchange recipes, cook up local delicacies, or simply savor a cup of coffee together. Exploring the local cuisine is an integral part of any trip, and I'm more than happy to recommend hidden gems and authentic eateries near Dam Square and Jordaan which is at a stone’s throw distance.
