PHILOSOPHY
I believe in Karma.
Everything happens for a reason.
A stranger is just a friend I haven't met yet !
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to meet up with people from different cultures, share the amazing travel experiences, broaden the horizon of thoughts and ideas I have about travel and life. Also, I would prefer staying with local people over any hotel so as to know more about its culture, food and off-beat places (which often we don’t get to know unless we meet a local).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There are many but listing a few.
In 2016, resigned the job.
Went on a trek as part of a Basic Mountaineering Course in the Himalayas for a whole month
and afterwards to Bhutan.
In 2020, did a cycling trip by YHAI for a week in Uttarakhand through some of the scenic Himalayan villages.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share the knowledge which I've about trekking and cycling as I've done those in the mighty Himalayas.
I would love to learn anything new.
I can teach some tricks in Maths for competitive exams, as I was a Maths faculty (only if you are interested).
