Overview
About Me
I treat everyone the way I would like to be treated, including animals, for me they are not an option to satisfy hunger.
I don't smoke and not a party person and yes I'm still enjoying life.
I have started learning Spanish recently as I would love to visit Spain in future. I also completed an online teaching course three years ago. I used to live in the city of Mumbai, India before moving to the UK.
I live in London at the moment and live a little far from the big attractions in the city so if you are looking for more of a peaceful locality to surf, then you're welcome to meet up.

One could merely pass through a city or town as a blinded tourist and never catch a glimpse of the local culture, try the incredible hidden eateries n restaurants, live music, and so on.
I have hosted travellers, attended meet-ups abroad, and would like to couch surf more in future.
If you don't find me responding in a day then I'm out on a retreat or study holiday but I try to get back as soon as I am online. If you'd like to be my guest, you need to be fully vaccinated, clean and be kind
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a nice place to meet new friends, having the experience of Host and Guest. It gives me the chance to get to know not only new places but also the real people who live there, having a more enriching experience from a cultural and human point of view.
I would like to
- meet travellers from around the globe
- many first timers in my life happened during my first solo long distance travel in the USA- my first time in the snow in Colorado; first time target shooting with different guns in Utah; First LGBT drag show in Oregon; night gigs in bars in Seattle; first time doing backpacking on trails in Oregon, first time in a strip club in Las Vegas, first time in a church tabernacle in salt lake city, Utah, and shared a meal with a family of ten people. ( I love these people:D I'm still in touch with them.:D)
I did love to see the world, but I don't want to experience that from some hotel room or Air BnB. If I go somewhere, I want to really get to know what it's like. What better way than to share this experience with a local? I cherish my Couchsurfing experiences and consider them to be one of the most enriching experiences which I would never forget in my life. I think it is awesome to meet people who I have never met in my life and share their homes and be a part of their busy lives and learn so much about them and their culture.
Interests
Music, nature, watching films, writing and poetry, spirituality, biking, drawing, dancing, whiskey, etc.
I am interested to learn about different cuisines.
I love getting lost in an unknown place, taking long walks to nowhere, doing yoga anywhere in the world, writing and surfing the internet and simply sharing ideas and perspectives, be it from a stranger, an acquaintance or a confidant. I love learning new things, it can be anything from anthropology and history to cosmology, cooking, geography and economics.
At the very core, hairstyling and ballroom dancing will always be my true love.
