About Me

Tranquil, curious, somewhat naive and a lot like water, attempting to make the most of life as it comes.
I am born and identify myself as an Indian, currently living, working and specialising in Germany as a doctor.
I get bitten by the travel bug every now and then and feel there's nothing quite comparable to the experience of hanging out with a local while visiting a new destination. Having felt the joy of that a few times, it's difficult to imagine the travel experience differently. Would love to offer and be offered the same to/from one and all. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To have one less stranger and one more friend, everytime I meet someone out here.

Hoping to be provided with any form of shelter in the course of my travels, while having the delight of getting to know those amazing beings who would be generous enough to share their space with a complete stranger and probably get to know their stories and their cities through their lenses.

And if I'm allowed the pleasure to, turn the favour around manifold.
I offer the humblest form of accommodation, would try to take care of your basic needs if you're a guest at mine. And maybe also have a jolly time exploring and conversing over this and that.

Music, Movies, and Books

An admirer of all beautiful creations of sounds, writings and films! So the list goes on for a while.
Especially fond of jazz, rock, alternative, literary classics, non fiction as well, and a wide range of films, including animated ones. Let's just talk about all the finer things out there if and when we meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stepping out of my comfort zones.
Survived yesterday and still be breathing today.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach the very little I know of this reality.
Learn whatever you want to teach.
Share a good time, interests, stories, food and drinks maybe!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My company for sure. I've been told I'm a listener, so a pair of ears - if you're looking for one to rant about things too. If it may interest you I'd share bits and pieces of the stories I've been living so far. I could cook some yum dishes, given the right ingredients are around and if we get along, eventually a friendship that lasts.

For my guests:
All of the above and...
A roof above your heads, food and water, a place to rest your backs at the end of the day.
My recommendations of my favourite things to do in the city probably! Gladly again also company in doing those and more if time permits!
