Will accept all the requests from UKRAINE. Please feel free to request, last minute as well and I'll try to do my best to accomodate you to at my place. Unfortunately, I can only accept one person. I request you to read "My Home" page and then take a decision. Looking forward to the person who sends a request! :)

Hi! I am Varun Sai Koruprolu and I am 20 years old. I am a third-year undergraduate pursuing Industrial and Product Design at the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, India. Currently, on an exchange semester at Hochschule Pforzheim, Germany. You're most welcome to stay at my dormitory, I know it's not the most ideal shelter but we can definetely have fun and try to make the most of it.

I enjoy meeting new people, learning different ways of living and love travelling as it opens to new possibilities. My recent hobby has been trying to understand the mathematical concepts behind the art of origami. Additionally, I am also a sports enthusiast who loves playing badminton and table tennis.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I found out about this amazing platform recently from my friend. It's so unique and benefits both the parties. I' d love to stay at someone's place and bond over the cultures we come from. So much to learn and get exposed to. I am looking forward to connect with someone and have a great time with them :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I absolutely love playing sports, big fan. I love playing badminton and table tennis, it's my savior when it comes to stress. I am refreshed and back to my normal and happy self.

I play the guitar and have completed two grades from Trinity. I want to get back to playing guitar properly and start singing, I have lost the practice after joining college and due to COVID.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've started to document interactions which I find fascinating around me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have taught origami to all kinds of age groups until now. I believe in spreading the joy of folding, it gives me immense happiness. Different institutions and local origami groups have invited me to teach their students and it has been fun and lovely. You always learn something new from these sessions and during the lockdown as everything was online, I was able to reach out to a larger audience :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am someone who can entertain people with playing different kinds of games.
I can teach them how to talk in Hindi and Telugu, two native languages :)
We can cook some crazy Indian dishes given we get all the ingredients, haha!
Teach you paper folding or Origami, I love folding (I am a big fan of elephant hyde paper).
