COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is one of the best things to have happened to Internet.
I met Christy Annis (US born, based in China) who introduced me to couchsurfing.
Thanks to her my trip to China's Sichaun province was a super duper hit.
Christy not only ensured I had the best of my budget vacation traveling to most of the exotic locations, but also met me several times during my stay at Chengdu.
We had such good fun together, specially trying out the Chinese cuisine :-) Love U Christy !!

Been a member of the 22day 2nd civilian trek on Siachen Glacier- World's highest, coldest and most expensive battlefield.
