Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We believe in sharing our knowledge and culture with others. We love to talk to people and know about their life stories as well as learn as much as possible from others.
We believe people are window to the world specially their own culture, so sharing our culture and way of life with others is something everyone should do, never know what we can learn from someone and how that can change your life.
We love to travel but we prefer to do it on budget so we are here to travel and if at any point of time we get a chance to be hosted by someone then it's a cherry on the cake and it helps us.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having a dip in glacier at 15000 ft, Skydiving in Dubai, Completing Pin Parvati Pass Trek (one of the dangerous pass in India).

Teach, Learn, Share

Cooking, specifically Vegetarian Indian meal from our culture. We can share our knowledge about India and Indian way of life specially JAINISM.
We are not an expert at anything but we would love to share any limited knowledge we have about any subject.
Also, if you have any skill you're proud of, we would love to learn the basics of it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We follow a particular religion of India called "Jainism". We can share about our culture with the host. For eg. we have a very strict list of things we can and cannot do or eat. Jainism is just 0.4% of the total population in India with the highest literacy rate. It's one of the oldest religion in the oldest religion in the world.

Also apart from travel know-how, crazy experiences and food quotient we can help them visit the best of Mumbai and all the other cities and countries we have been to thus far.

Some easy to do vegetarian recipes, home style Indian food, intellectual conversations and some Bollywood dancing.
