Hi! I am a human rights lawyer from India. I grew up in a remote town in India and hadn't travelled much until I went to law school in 2017. When I started travelling, I felt liberated and independent. The joy of meeting new people, learning about different cultures, and becoming friends with strangers was something I never wanted to give up. Although working full-time at the moment, I make sure to get out of Delhi the first chance I get. In 2022, I solo travelled to Bali and Viet Nam (where I had the best pho of my life). And in 2023, I went on a solo birthday trip to Japan!

I also like to think I'm a good singer. Love dinos and eating ice haha :P

I am vaccinated :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying at hotels is something I always avoid because hostels and CS are much better to get the local and authentic experience. Here to meet fellow travellers, experience local culture, learn new languages, and explore hidden gems.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is very random. Mostly discover new music on Netflix shows lol. Feel free to share your Spotify playlists with me!

I can watch Jurassic Park any day every day. Don't think I have a favourite Movie tho. What I like really depends on my mood that day. Somedays it could be a serious movie about war, other days it could be absolute trash like the Kissing Booth.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to read anything other than law books/papers. I work as a legal researcher and do intense academic reading almost every day. So I like to do less intensive things when I find time. Really want to go back to reading tho so that I can finish reading Pachinko which I started last year :(

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Picked cotton in a huge cotton field in Maharashtra, India.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the languages I know, would love to learn the languages you know. Happy to learn any kind of art. Willing to share my knowledge, experiences, hacks, and any material thing that wasn't gifted to me by someone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

In addition to the above-mentioned, I can also share authentic Indian recipes with you! I recently discovered that I am a good cook. Although I don't cook anymore because of time limitations and neither do I remember recipes by heart, I can always ask my mom and share them haha :)

Share lots of adventures, fun times and love, of course!
