About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel more, and learn to understand even more. I'm learning Spanish, so Spanish speakers are always super welcome :)

ABOUT ME

I have an intense passion to explore other cultures, I was born in India, however, never really developed nationalistic sentiments, but always thought of myself that I belong to the entire world. I joined Couchsurfing back in 2012, and it's been an excellent journey. I have learnt things travelling, hosting surfers, meeting people from all over the world, something a school could never teach, and I'm highly thankful for that. Of lately I have taken a route to be more spiritual and aware in my life, read more about different philoshophies. Also on the other hand, I love dancing, I love going out and living a vibrant outgoing life. You will find me having a long night out on a Saturday and pretty much in my spiritual zone on a Sunday.

PHILOSOPHY

I strongly believe in karma, and stoic philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is like a dream, a mission and a goal.

I want to know a person from every single country on planet earth. Is it possible, I don't know. How will I know, if I don't try. What better forum than CS to meet different people from different cultures .Trust me, there is nothing more satisfying than meeting a stranger, having a good conversation and saying a good bye like you're best friends. Yes, it does happen and has happened to me. Just that I want more of such instances in my life :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CouchSurfing has helped me make lifetime relationships. Sometimes its so hard to let go of the amazing people you meet when you host them. My experience with CS has been out of this world and is just getting better and better.

How can most of you surfers be so awesome, as in I walk into my first CS meet and everyone greets me like they know me from years. Trust me, its an overwhelming feeling .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

October 30th, 2011 - Metallica Concert - This was the day when I was living my dream. Just 15 feet away from James Heitfield and god I was awestruck.

February 15th, 2009 - Iron Maiden Concert - Front stage and head banging on Fear of the Dark. Again just 10 Feet away from Bruce Dickinson, I felt that my purpose of being alive is fulfilled.

2005 - Himalayas - The highest, widest and most dangerous mountain range in the world. Yes, I was paragliding there like an eagle. Surrounded by snow capped mountains and the fear and dismay of death. Yes I was living my life to the fullest.
