About Me

I was born and brought up in and around the Western Ghats of southern India. Luckily the places I grew up in (for eg. Mysore, Kottayam ) had rich nature and culture, and that shaped my love for travel. My father's moving job meant I lived in multiple places, learnt different languages, tasted different cultures. I am currently an engineering student in Vancouver, Canada.

I sing Indian classical music, I love imaging nature and its beings. I am a scuba diver. I watch a lot of football, f1 and tennis- both for fun and for work (I study human movement in sports!). Cooking (vegetarian) food is my daily dose of calm and joy.

I would love to meet people, share travel experiences and learn their hobbies (and get one movie I wouldn't have heard that you would 100% recommend!).
Cheers!

Music, Movies, and Books

Indian classical music, progressive rock. I find regional movies interesting. Reading books is one thing I have historically found super hard to do, but I so hope to change that!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

40+ scuba dives in different oceans. Clicked over 100 thousand images in my DSLR over 10 years.

Teach, Learn, Share

More than happy to share my little understanding of Indian culture and classical music, photography, and the underwater world. Maybe we could also revisit previous travel experiences through my images.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could cook some flavorful spicy vegetarian food for you!
