I am a 27 year old easy going Indian male who has a penchant for traveling and books. I have been taught to respect diversity and individual freedom. I like going on hikes, mountains, independent music and appreciate good books.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I realized that my travels till now had not been as fulfilling as they would have been with couch surfing. Also, what is a better way to connect with the a city than by living with its inhabitants?

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a sucker for everything niche (and pretentious :P). So when it comes to music I like listening to a lot of alternative and independent bands apart from the usual ones. My favourites in no particular order are, Big Thief, Young the Giant, Of Monsters and Men, Angus and Julia, The War on Drugs, Sufjan Stevens, Felice Brothers, Milky Chance, Blaze, Beatles, Queen, Bowie among several others.
When it comes to books some of my all time favourite authors are- Harper Lee, Gabriel Gracia Marquez, Rushdie and Wodehouse.
Movies/ Shows- Silicon Valley, stranger Things, LOTR, Mr. Robot, Friends etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled to the Himalayas to learn organic farming? Does it count?

Teach, Learn, Share
