CURRENT MISSION

To be a resource person in the field of education.

ABOUT ME

I am a Chartered accountant by chance but teacher by choice. Working with children is my passion and the challenges that the children and conflicted communities throw at me while I teach are something I cherish. I pursue happiness and there's no one else - than the Man In The Mirror- that I try to make happy.
I travel with my three year travel-buddy turned girlfriend turned fiancee. I am a cyclist. I cycle long distance one-two times a year.

PHILOSOPHY

The only person you need to make happy in the Man In The Mirror.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I derive my energy from people. I have taken a bigger house just so that I can host people :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit a very high paying job in six months, to join a school in lower income community in my city, as a teacher. Since then I have realized the euphoria of living the dream.
cycled to the top of Khardung-la, all alone.
