About Me

PROFESSIONAL:

I am an engineer and work at an American multinational company as supply chain specialist.

PERSONAL:

I'm joint secretary of Rotaract club and president of a non-profit adventure club (www.facebook.com/OctaneAdventures). We arrange regular adventure activities like Paragliding, Shooting, Camping Trekking, Hiking, Rafting, Karting, Skiing etc. throughout Pakistan.
Our club motto is to connect people & cultures by breaking the barriers of language, cast, religion and ethnicity through adventure sports to promote harmony and peace. We work as volunteers to manage club events and squeeze the cost through sponsorship to make such activities easily accessible for everyone.

PHILOSOPHY:

Curiosity is what makes us human. It’s one of the ingredients of human evolution.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

“Meet new people, share views & thoughts, interact and experience the rich cultures around the world” Obviously that’s the concept of CS, and every one on CS has more or less the same line in the profile, but there’s more:

MISSION:

Pakistan = A desert, warm as hell (God to Pakis: If you survive hell on earth i'll give you a free ticket to paradise when you die), where you won’t see a women on street, and where men walk around with Bombs tied to their chest :-D.

I believe that memorable experiences of travelers in Pakistan can help change this stereotype image of our country and promote tourism and peace in this region. I want to show the world that we are as human as any other nation and we share the same emotions & values with the rest of the world.

"I'm on Couchsurfing" to plan exciting activities and tours in the city and throughout the country for International travelers based on their interests & budget. Provide them company, security, accommodation, expertise, advice etc to help them explore & travel freely throughout Pakistan.

Other than this i'd simply love to hangout :-)
