Hello there! :)

I am from India and am currently pursuing an Erasmus master's degree in Rural Development at L'Institut Agro Rennes-Angers in France. Before moving to France, I lived in Gent, Belgium, for a year. I have also spent a month in South Africa at the University of Pretoria, exploring various parts of the country with my friends.

I enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities. Indoors, I like watching movies, cooking, and playing games with friends. As for outdoor activities, I prefer nature over bustling cities and buildings. I appreciate the beauty of landscapes, mountains, and beaches. Besides, I like visiting art and historical museums.

I am someone who values deep and meaningful conversations with people in a bar setting, rather than dancing in a sweat-infused bar (but yes, I do enjoy dancing as well, hahaha:)

I'm excited to explore Europe in ways that go beyond the conventional tourist experience. I hope to experience the local culture, enjoy new cuisines, connect with different people, and create meaningful conversations and memories together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new to CouchSurfing, and I aim to overcome my fear of solo travel by exploring new places and interacting with incredible people. I prefer exploring local life over usual tourist attractions. I intend to learn about local cuisine, language, and culture and make good friends.
