"Sit. Feast on your life." - Love after Love by Derek Walcott
There is a bunch of those mantras chanting in my life but I make space for just one here. I am a poet first and architect second. A mini dancer and tiny drummer. Lover of shoegaze, black gaze, psych rock, IDM and anything dreamy yet grounded. Guess that is why I like poetry over essays or stories. Its concise yet hits you like a splash of cold water in the early morning hours. But being concise is not my thing when it comes to talks over wine or starry night strolls. How can one not enjoy that fine combination?

But if I were to be concise, after all..here is what I would write about me:
With eyes that longs for the inner picks,
a heart that follows wild and inner ticks
and with legs that prefer an equal stride,
I like the dream than the fruit I find.
A fruit with wings and not just bright
sweet and healthy
inside and outside
What a find!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the love of meeting new kinds. Someone once said, 'meeting is creating'. Well, one creates new perspectives and realities.
I have couch-surfed just a handful of times and it left me behind good friendship and memories.
