About Me

I always try to make one trip to abroad in a year or if that not possible then I, at least, try to go out of city. TRAVELLING IS MUST.

I have a keen interest in business. I have have over 8 year working experience. Doing IT sales.

Apart from mind-numbing part of me, I am open-minded, fun-loving and easy going guy. I love prank-ing my friends, writing quotes/quotations and cracking jokes (most of the times, lame one :P) I have a keen interest to be acquainted with people from different countries, backgrounds and cultures. And this is the reason; I am here at couch surfing.

MY PHILOSOPHY: There will be a time in life, where you will have no option but to be sensible and mature so for now, be crazy and study and experience your life at different level.

TRAVELLING EXPERIENCE: I don't have much travelling experience but been to dubai twice (in 2013 and 2015). In 2016, I was selected for an exchange program to study in bilkent university (Ankara, Turkey) and Thailand in Jan 2020. In turkey, I had my best four months of my life. I was there from january 2016 to May 2016. In that period, I have explored a lot. visited 10 cities. Did group and solo travelling. in short, was able to live with different perception. Met many amazing people from all over the world and was able to make few friends from all over the world. :)
