I am currently working as a software developer(blockchain) in Toronto. I previously worked as a Software Developer(Geophysics) in India. I have spent close to 10 years for my college education. While I may be done with my formal education, I am never done with learning. I like to keep on learning about anything and everything. To me, this is the meaning of being alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am always in search of human connection. While most of the time I befriend people by mere chance, I also actively seek to meet new people, for I believe that everyone is unique and capable of connection. Not judging others for what they are is a mindset I have developed over time and I want to continue strengthening the same.
