About Me

My friends call me Adi and I'm 28 this year. I love bike-packing! Pack a backpack and hit the road! Two of my passions in one trip!

I really like to get out of tourist zones and enjoy the company of locals and other like minded individuals. I've had many wonderful and memorable experiences travelling on a little budget, it has taught me many things about myself, to be humble and kind, just the way locals have gone out of their way to take care or host me.

I don't come from a very well to do family but my little savings from the army let me explore places and it's just the cultural experiences coupled with brilliant conversations shared with fellow travellers that I would like experience wherever I go.

The world is our one and only home, we have no choice but to take care of it.

Racism, hatred, greed, corruption, injustice, environmental destruction wherever I go makes me sad but teaches me valuable lessons to make this world a better place for our children and the future of our wonderful world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Conversations, Cultural Exchanges, I've learnt so much and it has helped become the person I am today.
