Dear All,

I am a simple guy based out of Chandigarh, India. I love to travel, hike, cook, read, drive and explore new places. When it comes to work, I am quite ambitious and energetic. I believe in myself and dream a lot. Experimenting in the kitchen with the new dishes and listening to the music are my favorite pass times.

PHILOSOPHY

You get only one life. Live it and don't regret. Chase your dreams with full conviction, spread the love and be ready for new experiences in life always.

PROFESSION

Heading sales unit of a software development firm based in India. It gives a meaning to my life and helps me achieve personal goals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS gives you an opportunity to interact with people, share experiences and learn more about different cultures. I think CS bridges the boundaries and bring people together. As I have read reviews and stories of the people using CS, I also wish to participate in the revolution and make my contributions for society.

Interests

Traveling, mountains, hiking, long drives, playing chess, cooking and socializing. I think it's not good to leave out 'good food and drinks' :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music definitely turns you on. I like listening to trance, house, Sufi, rock, country etc. To me, music is a way of life.

In the last few years, I have read many fiction novels based on spiritual themes. I like reading fiction, autobiographies and history.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have driven in mountains for hours without stopping, stayed in -8-degree celsius at an altitude of 15k feet above sea level. It was a fight with myself and I won after all. Conquering the arduous peaks of Himalayas is my ultimate dream.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is a great teacher. I take every day as an opportunity to learn something new. In India, there's a saying that when you share the happiness, it multiples and when you share the grief, it reduces. In each case, sharing is the key. I think the only difference between humans and savages is the ability of former to learn, share and make the life better.

I would love to share my travel experiences with my counterparts. I hope to learn about their culture, background and way of life. It doesn't get any more exciting than meeting people and making the world a smaller place.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My travel experiences for sure. I bring with myself an amazing blend of punjabi and hindu culture that may be exciting for my hosts.

I can listen to my host's experience, help them in cooking and learn a few cool dishes.
