About Me

I am a well-loving person, excited to see life and look in its eye with the raw intensity of a child, curious and forlorn, yet in awe.
That's what keeps me going, traveling, sharing, caring, inscribing my names in a river and sand and mountain, for as a comet we arrive and slide into the dark sky.
I believe in the joy and delight of a wandering life brings us awareness and makes us more human.

I am also looking forward to a three-month round trip to Northern and North-eastern India to gather some of the best stories from this chill-kissed place in India.
Crazy yeah? Yeah well, that's I want a different bag of experience.

I have left my job as a writer in a financial healthcare firm, where I was writing stories and content that was saving lives or impacting them in a better way.

Now I am out here into the unknown, exploring the hidden beauty of northern India. Would be happy if you inspire in me an element of wonder and awe while interacting with your world.
I'll be climbing mountains for a month, in a strict disciplinary fashion, and then on proceed for more elaborate travel

I believe traveling is like a shamanic initiation into the unknown. You go through the phase of facing the unknown and making it known, thereby making the world less a hostile place and more of a holistic land. You become a better man in this process.

I am a wounded healer of the soul - Carl Jung. Traveling is much like healing a wounded soul.

A Zen saying for you to meditate on - “The beauty of life is not just in the flowers, dancing with the wind, shining with the sun, but also in the fallen flower, withering away like nothing, but still leaving traces of forgotten beauty”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am in search of mystery, and human beings are of the mix that is more interesting than other creatures. Ah, cats ain't that interesting, telling you. #NoOffenseToCats.
I want you to be a part of my journey exploring the northern hemisphere. Who knows, you might become a character sketch for my book.
I am happy to meet you, and your kin, even if we don't decide to stay
