Passionate about life, I work hard to survive it, throughout I try to maintain a sense of humor, I am charming, kind, creative and not afraid of emotion, I am spiritual, an aspiring writer who undeniably has a way with words after reading all of the above... Hahaha!

Here are 7 random, utterly useless facts about myself:

1. I sing loudly and proudly when I’m in a happy, cheerful mood (also reflects how fearless I am too, as I suck! LOL) 

2. I am obsessed with numbers, Math, Sudoku 2048 etc. (unlike humans, they do not lie and are a universally understood language)

3. I am an Indian, born in Zaire, grew up in South Africa but a citizen of Canada. Basically, I am a Citizen of the world. 

4. My proudest achievements are passing my driver’s license first time and getting my MD at age 22 #idontknowaboutyou

5. Although I LOVE books and collect them, I have a tendency to start so many books that I sadly never finish any. :(

6. I once scored a goal when playing soccer!!! Sadly, it was an "own goal"!! #fml

7. My careers from childhood ranged from wanting to be a farmer for Corn Flakes, a relic Hunter, a Charmed one, a doctor in Grey's and lastly a columnist like Carrie Bradshaw. Hence, I became an accountant. #sigh 

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently quit my job as an accountant and lecturer in the hopes to adventure the world and its seas (and maybe find myself in the process). See it as crazy or foolish, but either way, I am looking to make some pals along my newfound path and share a couch wherever I end up. I should probably state for the record that I cook pretty well, and I swear I do not snore. Hahaha!
