CURRENT MISSION

Travel, meet people of all cultures and backgrounds

ABOUT ME

Educated, well-traveled, curious. Originally from India, but live in the USA. Interested in a wide variety of subjects. Not an expert in anything, but I can hold a conversation on most topics except soccer, golf, American football, basketball, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd be happy to meet visitors for coffee or drinks or a meal. We could share a conversation about books, travels, cooking, etc. If I have the time I can also show you around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met a couple of people so far on CS and have had very positive experiences. It's a great group and hope to meet and get to know lots more people in the future.

Interests

Reading, traveling, hiking, museums, photography, music. Very interested in understanding different cultures, how different people live, their hopes, aspirations and challenges. The world is wonderfully diverse, and I will probably spend all my life in wide-eyed wonder.
