I'm a film maker, TED fellow and teacher from India.
Independent filmmaking can be an extremely isolating job. So when i'm not working on films, i love meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures and knowing their stories.

My last film 'Placebo' recently released on Netflix, right now im studying for my masters at the Netherlands Film Academy, Amsterdam, reasearching techno and rave culture.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm someone who always experiences a place through people. A conversation, sharing stories, a meal, taking a walk, watching a film- everywhere i have travelled its those memories of discovering a city/space through another, or linked to another stays with me most fondly.

I'm like a cat, i can be lazy or just do my own thing usually, so when i travel, I like being the opposite and couchsurfing opens up a sharing experience which, of course, first was an economic decision too, but eventually also became a series of memorable encounters.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Amazing and foolish often straddle a thin line ;) In Bali, I got stranded due to a volcano eruption. So me and some friends decided to ride a scooty to see the volcano . Somehow we landed up in the evacuation area and helped a family of locals evacuate. A local took us to an abandoned restuarant by the valley from where we saw the majestic mountain with a surreal red glow.

Amazing? You take a call :)
