I am a PhD student in Astrophysics currently living in Canada (originally from India). Photography is my passion. I travel many countries for photography, adventures, hiking, camping. Couchsurfing is a great way to connect to people and know different cultures. I have hosted many people when I was living in Italy and was hosted by few too. It was an amazing experience. Right now I live in a city which doesn't get any tourist or traveller. So don't get much chance to connect to people via Couchsurfing but always try to use it when I travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great idea. It is good to know new people from different part of the world and also make new friends :) It's a great idea to make connections with people from all over the world and learn their cultures and living style.

I can´t host all the times and I am really busy with my study most of the time. But I will be happy to show you Pisa and some really secret places which I explored nearby. Also I can meet you in Florence, Lucca,Livorno,Cinque Terre too, if I've time.
