Hey there, thanks for reading my profile!

For guests: My house is located in the city center and I live here with my family. Please read the house rules before sending your request. Me and my family look forward to meet and host you, welcome in advance :)

For hosts: I work as a Business Development Lead at Cognizant and a Professor at University of Mumbai who likes to travel around the world, explore local cuisine and meet new people.

I love to cook, and can prepare authentic Indian cuisine for you (not the tasteless stuff you’ll find in an “Indian restaurant”).

I love hiking expeditions and have trekked across Western ghats and Himlayas in India, Nepal, Kazakhstan, Jordan, Australia, New Zealand, Liechtenstein, Poland and Norway.

I’ve recently learnt how to hitchhike and i do that as much as possible.

I want to understand your culture better and learn from you. Will also share my experiences and travel adventures, lets have a cultural exchange :) Also, please allow me to host you whenever you’re in India.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To understand the local culture and live like one. After all, when in Rome do as the Romans do!

Interests

• hiking
• road trips
• wildlife photography
