Hello there! 👋 I'm a multifaceted individual with a passion for education, community service, and exploration. By day, I'm an online English teacher, a lecturer at a university in Delhi, and a dedicated advocate for social change through my work with an NGO. When I'm not immersed in academia or making a difference, you'll find me embracing the joys of life—I love meeting new people, discovering hidden gems in different places, and indulging in the diverse flavors of cuisines around the world. Oh, and did I mention, I'm also a certified yoga teacher? 🧘‍♀️ I've been on a solo travel journey since 2015, soaking in the beauty of new cultures and landscapes. With a chirpy, positive demeanor and an outgoing, friendly attitude, I thrive on building connections and spreading joy wherever I go. While I adore hosting, living with my parents in India can make it a tad challenging to do so frequently. Nonetheless, I'm always up for a chat, a cup of chai, or perhaps even an impromptu adventure if our paths cross!

P.S. travelling till June, 2024 so won't be able to host.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Not to offer or find a place to stay, but to meet people/families offering to share culture, experiences, lifestyle, inspiration and life-stories.

Interests

I'm drawn to non-fiction books for their captivating insights, and I've recently fallen in love with belly dancing, immersing myself in its graceful movements for the past few months.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most exhilarating experiences I've had was hiking to the awe-inspiring Pulpit Rock, standing on the edge of the world as Norway's fjords stretched beneath me. In India, I stood at Zero Point in Sikkim, where the majestic Himalayas kissed the sky. For a day, I stepped into the romantic world of Juliet at Verona's famed Juliet's Club, feeling the echoes of timeless love. And in Helsinki, I embraced the Finnish tradition, immersing myself in the intense heat of a sauna before plunging into the icy embrace of a frozen lake, a moment of pure exhilaration and serenity.
