Hey there! I’m AravindPramod, an architect and photographer based on Kottayam , Kerala , India with a passion for sustainable design and heritage conservation. I love discovering how culture, nature, and creativity intersect in each place I visit. My journey in architecture and photography has taken me through vibrant cities and peaceful villages, and I've learned that some of the best stories come from sharing experiences with people.

When I'm not designing buildings or capturing moments through my lens, you'll find me exploring local art forms or indulging in good conversations over a cup of coffee. I’m curious about different perspectives and enjoy connecting with people from all walks of life. I believe each of us has something unique to offer and learn, which makes traveling all the more special!

I look forward to meeting like-minded travelers and sharing adventures, whether it’s through architecture, photography, local cuisines, or simply experiencing the hidden gems of a city together. If you're interested in sustainable living, photography tips, or just want to exchange stories, let's connect!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I believe that travel is about connecting with people, not just visiting places. Staying with locals or meeting fellow travelers allows for a much richer experience, filled with personal stories, shared meals, and cultural exchanges that go beyond typical tourism.

Couchsurfing offers a unique chance to step into someone else’s world, learn new perspectives, and create lasting memories together. I’m here to meet open-minded people who enjoy the spirit of adventure and are willing to share a part of their lives. Whether it’s exploring local art, architecture, or simply having a good conversation, I think Couchsurfing is a gateway to genuine connections and meaningful experiences.
