ABOUT ME

I am an avid motorcyclist. My dream is to travel the world on motorcycle. While i am halfway there, I believe there is still a lot to see and experience. I love tranquillity and peace. Green pastures, high mountain passes, waterfalls, medieval castles, lakes and small towns are my favourite places to go.

Often I find difficult to do small talks, but it’s never the case with fellow travellers due to the similar passion and I am always curious to hear their experiences, stories and always eager to know about their favourite places, so that someday I can go there too. You will find me star marking the place in google maps immediately. :)

I love dogs and cats and all the living beings in this planet :)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe travelling is very essential for each and every human being to become wiser, smarter and become a better version of themselves. It takes you out of your comfort zone, makes you do things you never did, you speak different, you eat different and you breathe different. Each moment you spend outside doing new things is an experience and memory of lifetime. Go feel kindness and love of the good people, go experience the worst in this world too. It will make you stronger, confident, aware and wiser.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is a lovely platform which helps like-minded people to connect, In a general context similar interests and passion brings them together and binds them into a special connection. Some people find good friends, some people find fellow travellers, some people find inspiration and some people find free accommodation :)
I am here to share and receive good experiences, good food, good laugh and create beautiful memories.

Books and myself have a weird relationship. I tried reading books/novels but every time I only managed to read the first five pages, somehow it hypnotized me into deep sleep. Time to time it became my go to method for falling asleep :)

Have travelled overland solo from India to UK covering 25000 kms
Have travelled India to Indonesia for 9 months, wandering aimlessly after quitting my job.
Been to 44 countries on a motorcycle and raring to go to the Mars one day ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

Good Student, Bad Teacher. So mostly i will be on the end where i will be learning from the fellow travellers.
I can teach you, how to make the chicken biryani.
I cannot teach you ,how to ride a motorcycle. It would be a expensive affair if you drop it.
I cannot teach you, how to pack on long journeys as I believe it’s an art which should be self-discovered.
I can share with you some of my favourite places to go around the world.
