Mi casa es tu casa.. :)

Hello friends, I am an IT graduate who has quit his job for traveling. I am passionate about trekking, photography, history and cinema. Apart from that I love cooking, sketching, driving and listening to music. A true art lover at heart and an explorer of the world. I am also a little into astronomy and astro-photography. I love to meet new people, make new friends and have an enriching culture exchange between them. I am just back from a one-year-long trip across India surfing the unexplored areas and gathering diverse experiences.

I keep trying new things. Learning to play a few instruments like the uke, djembe and happy drum. Researching on a Japanese meditation technique called Forest bathing to heal through nature. Recently I have been obsessed with learning Spanish and trying Middle Eastern recipes. Would love it if you could help me improve my Spanish..

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

As I mentioned earlier, I love to meet new people and make new friends around the world. I feel traveling with different people gives us a lot of knowledge and experience about the far away lands and living with local people in their own lands gives us a very firsthand experience of that place. Hence, couch surfing!
