Hi, I'm Avnish!

Born and raised in Manchester, I packed up and left on a journey to explore a different life on the road

I’m an open minded, relaxed and silly guy figuring out my place in the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The people you meet truly make a place great, and there are so many people to meet and share with!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of different music, but I usually prefer strong funky rhythms and beats. Anything from rap, hip hop, jazz, soul, trance, house, techno, reggae, afrobeat and more depending on my mood. I especially love live music/performances and if dancing is involved even better!

As for books I mostly read fiction (sci-fi/fantasy/mystery) but I also want to balance out with some non-fiction

Teach, Learn, Share

I love movement in all its forms! Currently my focus is on climbing, yoga, and capoeira, however I also like swimming, running, jumping, hiking and sports as well as skills like juggling, handstands and staff spinning (which I’m still learning).

I’m also very interested in learning more about different drums like djembe, bongo, conga, dhol etc

Learning new skills and ways to move is a passion, anything we can learn from each other is a great gift

Perspectives on the nature of self and spirituality are also very valuable

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to cook - all vegetarian/vegan homemade dishes - my specialties are Indian curries and big chillis

Cooking and sharing a homemade meal is one of the best ways to get to know people, and of course learning to cook new foods from new places is tons of fun
