About Me

Hi,
I am Geophysicist by profession, sounds heavy isn't it : ) but a happy go lucky person who likes to explore places in my own way. Rather than ticking off places on list I like into the sink local culture and experience things not on a tourist map.

Even though my work is at sea, I love the going to the mountains whenever I get chance. Recently, I have developed a fondness for visiting marketplaces.

I am a flexible person and like to experience new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and experience the nuances of the various places and cultures around the world.

Also, would like to share my experiences with other travelers and help them explore India and places I have visited.
