ABOUT ME

Usually know what interesting things are going in my city. Always on the look out for cool urban adventures. I am pretty easy-going, always up for a drink or good food.

End of August I usually am at Burning Man and involved with burner activities.

Work wise: Product Maker / Teacher / entrepreneur where my goal is to bridge tech, creativity and social causes in one. One my main thing is, I love helping create micro-communities that engage in social activities or find ways to give back to the society. I am currently working on a new community project to create communal spaces where people can live, work and play together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can let people crash in my living room and show people around San Francisco and Oakland, especially the non-touristy sides. I know the music scene really well and always have a cool event recommendation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In a secluded town in the Himalayas. In a place not known to most people in the world or in that fact people of the same state. The town had just been connected by road just 6 months before I was there. It was the most beautiful place I have ever laid my eyes on. And we were the only 2 tourists in town.
