MUST READ THE "HOUSE RULE" Before you place "STAY REQUEST" to us.

This Couchsurfing account is in my name (Piyali Das), but the entire idea of hosting guest (free accommodation) has come from my husband and we all supported it. So most of the places on this profile (website) page in our description, I tried to address myself as "WE" not "I". In fact our entire family is eager to involve in this kind of voluntary activities and offer good services. Our main motto is to share education and experience with people from different countries.
I am Piyali Das 31 (F) year’s old lady, mainly housewife, but I have 2 separate small businesses that I need to look after. Before marriage I was a village girl, so could not go far ahead with education. Before reaching to graduation level, I got married. As I was not very studious, I did not want to continue my study further. In my family, everybody speaks/knows better English except me. I have TWINS 11 years old sons and that is my pride and specialty, otherwise I am a simple Bengali girl/housewife.
LIKES:
a) Discuss about potential business opportunity in INDIA and sharing new business ideas.
b) Making harmless and similar minded friends from all over the world.
c) Travelling
d) Partying: Occasional (not frequently)
e) Cooking
DREAM:
Me and my husband is having a very special dream jointly. We wish, our two sons will lead this country (India) one day. Tirelessly we are working/planning and thinking on it. We want that our 2 sons will become extreme high level educated person (not scholar) so that they will be capable to lead this country one day with a complete different thought but better direction. We need courage from all our friends and well-wishers.
ECONOMIC STATUS:
We are from below middle class Bengali family (not rich)
EMOTIONS:
We think Guest is the other face of God. Who knows when a new guest (God) will come in our life and will educate us with new ideas and thoughts.
AMBITIONS and AIMS:
1) We have a "Non-Profitable Organization" called "Abhinna Bangla" (অভিন্ন বাংলা), we want this to grow bigger with proper nurture and fulfil the purpose of it in a right manner.
2) People from all over the world should come here and stay peacefully. We want you:
"Come here as a Guest, live as a Friend and go as a Family member".
আমরা চাই:
"অতিথি হিসাবে এখানে আসুন, বন্ধু হিসাবে বাস করুন এবং পরিবারের সদস্য হিসাবে ফিরে যান"।
हम चाहते हैं:
"यहाँ एक अतिथि के रूप में आओ, एक मित्र के रूप में रहो और एक परिवार के सदस्य के रूप में वापस जाओ"।
3) As we are not rich, we cannot send our kids to out of country to mix with different types of people, study their culture, food habits, languages, sports, sharing Education, Knowledges and Experiences etc. but what we can do that inviting people here from all over the world and give my Kids chance to mix with Global people and be Educated.
P.N:
Dear friend,
Before you come to our place, you must know that we/our family is having a very simple mentality and simple life style. We stay in a very normal family home, No AC. If that is fine with you......we will be happy to host you.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

WHY WE ARE ON COUCHSURFING?
First and foremost reason is to get Education from our guests mainly for our Kids.

We believe in “One World One Country”. We dream about a country having no boundary. Couch Surfing Platform can fulfil our dream to some extend by giving us chance to invite new friends from all over the world. We like people to come to our country/home from every corner of the world as a guest, so that we can gift them a good environment and beautiful memories. We would like to share the cultures, traditions, music, food and many more things of our country with our guest and at the same time we would like to know facts about their country as well.
We are very keen to share and discuss about potential business opportunity in INDIA and sharing new business ideas. We, our whole family do generates new new potential and profitable business Ideas, we discuss about it among us but eventually we do forget them as no follow-up. May be some day, some one will be interested to know them from us......God knows.
We believe in “Atithi devo bhabo” (Guest is God), so all of our guests are equally important/valuable to us, no matter their nationality, religion, beliefs, gender, age, sexual orientation or experience in Couchsurfing........ We always try to contribute our fullest possible services within our financial capacity towards every guest, does not matter how rich/poor guest is.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

MUSIC: Generally we like that kind of music which feels good on ear and touches our heart. We love Music but there is no certain category of music that we specifically love. We like instrumental music and some music mostly classical based. In short any tune which gives comfort to our ear and ease to mind, we love.
MOVIES: We would like to watch such kind of movies which gives us a special message and increases our knowledge. We do not believe that movies are for entertainment only. We believe movie has a strong power to educate people easily. We like/prefer to watch only those kind of movies which gives us education directly/indirectly.
BOOKS: We are keen to read those kind of books which gives us a moral support and helps us to know the world in different directions
