About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hmmm...to live new experiences.. to climb mountains..click pictures.. bit by bit backpack the world - savouring every new place

An easy-going, fun loving guy. Loves to travel..loves adventure...new experiences, thrives on new company, conversations, enjoys observing subtle cultural nuances.

I'm reasonably intelligent, very open to new ideas/thoughts. Part of me is very concerned about global warming.. Love Trekking..the Himalayas are awesome.. Loves a chilled beer...

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I cannot always promise a couch...but here is what i can promise

1) An insiders tour to the city - if you buy be beer or a cup of coffee at the end of it:-) Well i live close to Colaba - the Colonial part of the city.. its really pretty...alot of history, culture and nice hang outs, a sea front.

2) Generally hang-out talk about India..other places..interesting things..

3) I think India is one heck of country to backpack.. I've roamed around a bit and would love to pitch in with a few travel ideas..

4)I live very close to the railway station... if your coming to Mumbai from another city or leaving by train for another city...and it does not clash with my office timings..i can pick/drop you off at the railway station

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never offered a couch through couch serving. But i was an active AIESECer...(www.aiesec.org) and did tonnes of home stays for people from all over the world... I truly enjoy introducing people to my City..from the cultural, architectural to the party side

Interests

Meeting new people, exploring new places, climbing up a mountain, skiing down a mountain, photography (am only an amateur) drinking beer, cycling, good conversations, reading a good book, watching a good movie and a few more..
