CURRENT MISSION

Take a year-long break, and go trekking solo in the mountains of Northeastern India, and Himachal/Uttarakhand during 2025/26. Maybe another long backpacking trip across Southeast Asia.

ABOUT ME

(So-so) Finance Consultant, Book Hoarder, Cinephile, Blues/Jazz/Indie-fan, Obsessed about Cricket, and an Occasional Writer.

PHILOSOPHY

Dont plan it, just do it. Pick points A and B, the rest will just fall into place as you travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be a good host to people who want to experience authentic Bengali hospitality.

Interests

Photography has been on hold since I lost my camera back in 2016. Mountaineering is something I want to seriously pursue if my lungs can handle the physical exhaustion.

• cooking
• mountaineering
• mountains
• dining out
• trekking and camping

Music, Movies, and Books

This is a very long list. Nerdwriter is my favourite video essay creator on YouTube, since he pretty much covers all of my interests.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went on an impromptu 1 month trek/tour to North India after getting suspended from graduate school, that's about it. Basically I ran away from home and roamed around till my body gave up and the money ran out.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always save the last hour before sunset to find a room to stay the night in a safe place.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food, Shelter, Cat and my geeky collections

Countries I’ve Visited

Bhutan, Nepal
