CURRENT MISSION

Travel + fun + professionalism = I am game!

ABOUT ME

I am an Indian-born-slash-bengali-raised backpacker, a sagittarian, culture junkie, pseudo environmentalist, Coldplay fan, cartoonist, movie-maker, a mouse-potato, a geek-o-phile, a foodie and an architect by profession.

I got a perpetual hunger for adventure. I love the feeling of being lost and exploring the way out from nothing(except when running late for a train).

In 2006, after backpacking within my home country for quiet a long time, I decided it was time to travel abroad. I did a 15 days...though not a solo trip to Southeast Asia and came back without getting rid of the travel bug - so I continued my studies for another three years in India and went on a student exchange programme to Eastern-Europe (namely Romania) for 3 months.

I aim to promote Indian tourism not only by hosting foreign visitors in my country, but also by sharing the Indian culture while traveling overseas. I also dream of making lots of friends of different nationalities and have a mutual share of each other's traditions and cultures.

This 2011, I have graduated as an architect and will be travelling to Delft,Netherlands to pursue my masters degree, in the mean time will be travelling a lot as well, making new friends, visiting new cities, towns, villages....

So, I am off to see the world on August 18th, 2011.

PHILOSOPHY

No matter what goes wrong, I just keep moving & live for good moments.

I love the hills and valley, sitting on a coffee table, sipping coffee and enjoying the serene beauty.

I love the beach, but I'm uber scared of the open water; gotta learn swimmimg soon.

I am a pure no-vegetarian, though restrict myself to fishes, chicken and lamb meat.

I love reading books, but lately I just read stuff off the internet.

I can't live without music. I don't know how to play any instrument but I can shake that ass anytime, anywhere!
