ABOUT ME
*** Would love to meet with everyone headed to Toronto but because I'm planning my own adventure, at the moment time isn't on my side :( Hit me up in March though and I'll show you around!**
Super Chatty, Super Social, I like learning stuff! I'm on a mission this year. Headed to Nashville & Atlanta USA followed by a trip to Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane in Australia and hopefully will be wrapped up by a stay in Turin, Italy. Looking for cool peeps that might be down to let me crash :) I love to cook and thank you dinners are totally on the table!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
***Couch Surfing***
Right now I'm looking for fun hosts who are into arts, music, out doorsy stuff and general fun.
I'm a considerate person. I respect peoples space and I prefer to be a clean tidy house guest. This is my long winded way of saying I'm down to help with chores (I lived in a shared house of 7 for 3 years so I know the ropes). I also love cooking and can make some might tasty indian food (among other stuffs)!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
This is a new thing for me. I have a bunch of friends who have said amazing things about couch surfing so I'm excited to try it out!
Interests
Cooking - Vegetarian, Indian & Italian. I'm interested in herbs and love to incorporate lots of fresh herbs and spices. Yum
Dance - Have studied ballet, jazz, hip-hop, salsa and Merengue. For the past 5 years I've been studying Kathak (a South Asian classical dance style from West Bengal)
Fitness - Love Pilates & Yoga. Out doors stuff like hiking and swimming. I'm also interested in learning to surf (but I'm kind of scared hahaha!)
The Arts - Love music, photography and fine art. Everything from Frida Khalo to David Bowie - If it's expressive and kinda off...count me in!
Music Scene & Nightlife - I'm pretty open. I love a good party at a club but I also equally love a dive bar with a killer band. I loooove music so exposure to that scene wherever I go isa must for me.
Bad movies - Have you ever seen Troll 2? It will give Sharknado a run for it's money...and win...
Shoes - Ya I'm a chick - they are my vice...what can I say?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hmmmmm....
I drove through the Canadian Rockies from Vancouver to Banff & Lake Louise in a mustang convertible with the top down all the way
(I swear that's where giants come from)
I was lucky enough to visit Belur Math while in Calcutta (http://youtu.be/m0LVciwbj4o)... There's not many words for this place
I also visited Shantiniketan which is an incredible village that has a world music and arts school. http://youtu.be/bohvzO9aqcs
I've won a dance contest during Mardi Gras in New Orleans (no I did not show my boobs - cause I'm a boss like that!)
I also did a photo shoot in a bra and tutu during Mardi Gras...actually that whole trip is a story and a half!
I caught 107lb Blue Marlin in the Sea of Cortez (I named him Marcus...he was cute...we let him go)
