Hi, I am Abhishek. If you are wondering how to pronounce my name, the A is pronounced as A in apple and the rest is similar to Milkshake :) . I am a 30 year old guy living in Midtown Manhattan, the center of New York. The apartment is next to Empire State Building and at a 10 minute walk to Times Square. I work as a software engineer. I lived in San Francisco for 2 years before moving to New York. Outside of work, I love playing the piano and dancing. I used to be in a latin dance team. Now I just go for social dancing. I have recently discovered a passion in me to travel more and know about more cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from all over the world and share our interesting stories. I love meeting people because it helps broaden my horizon and helps me grow as an individual. I am also pretty new to New York and would love to have somebody to explore the endless things in New York.

Interests

Piano, Dancing, Swimming, having good conversations over beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Latin Bachata music, bands like Coldplay, One Republic, Pink Floyd. I don't read many books - I know I should start it. I used to watch a lot of movies when I was in college, but after graduating I have become much more outgoing and don't watch movies too often.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was once stranded in the middle of Pennyslvania with my car towed around 1.30 AM in the morning. My car had my laptop, phone and I had a flight to catch at 6 AM in the morning. The towing company isn't responding on the call and to top it all, I am drunk! .... To be completed when I meet you
