ABOUT ME
Well I am an average guy, straight!! Love the part of my job that allows me to travel around the world and meet new people and visit exciting places. I am easy going and don't lose my cool easily. Love to share what I have experienced in my travels and share stuff about my beloved Pakistan. I love to try new and exciting things.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Well I usually participate by trying to get my circle of non-CS friends and colleagues interested in CS. I also like to make sure that other travelers I meet through CS who might be new to CS also have a great time and I can share my experience with them as much as possible. I usually travel a lot for extensive durations because of my work, which also gives me the opportunity of having a ride which I always use to get other travels to CS gatherings or plan short trips together for sight seeing etc.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far I have surfed twice with two great surfers in Athens and Paris. And like my other CS experiences these were great. But mostly I have been active at meetings, gatherings, camping trips or just chilling with some great couch surfers I have met in my travels. Would definitely continue to participate as much as I can in the CS community and once my business travel is a little reduced and my living situation changes I would love to start hosting also.
Interests
Traveling, photography, taking long naps, try to pick up a book occasionally, Movies (mostly people who know me I love to spend my time watching movies), Sit coms, Action series, drink lots of coke (I think I drink more coke then water).
And if you ask my mom, spending too much time in front of the tele and drinking coke is something she would love me to stop doing.
And that is Coke the beverage guys!!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydiving from 4000 ft. Have made four jumps so far and plan to do more. The eventual target is to get certified to do free fall from 12000 ft or more.
Bungee jumping near Ottawa, Canada. Scuba diving near Fethiye, Turkey in the Aegean/Mediterranean. Shark diving with great whites near Cape Town, South Afrcia.
Next want to try out white water rafting and may be base jumping if I can get my courage up to it.
Oh yeah need to learn now to swim also.
