I want to see planet earth, make new but long term (if possible lifelong) friends, learn about their culture, and make them laugh. I love to hike and nature is my drug. While on most days of the month I am busy working on my PhD, whenever I feel sick of city life I make sure I go out and connect with nature. I also like to take pictures of landscapes. Some better ones can be found here:

Among other things, I like to talk about culture, history, music, nature, anthropology, and architecture. If you are a technology person, I can also talk about that because I used to work as a Software engineer for a few years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new and inspiring people. I want to hear their stories, share mine, learn their cuisine, share mine, learn their culture and share mine. Above all, I want to make friends and spread love.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well perhaps making friends from all over the world can be called Amazing. But I don't think I have done it alone myself. My friends also gave me chance to be their friend. So yeah we all did this amazing thing that we are from different cultures and we enjoy the friendship.
