About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Move , Trust, Love.

These are the words Im choosing to live by since the past few years. They have everything in it.

ABOUT ME

Im currently travelling through Europe. Ive just been in India, in different parts, since 2019. Ive been itching to get back to Europe. So i decided when a bit of money came in, I would take a year off, to discover movement and alternate living communities in Europe. I decided to start with Portugal. As a Goan, i felt it would be good to start here as well as i heard many good things about the people and communities here.

So from being a host for many years, then disappearing from couch surfing for years, I am finally back on CS but this time as a Surfer. I'm hoping that I have some good karma running on my back and that I may meet interesting hosts that I become friends with over time. Our life is so short and its all about the memories and the connections we make that we will remember on our dying breaths.

I feel as if i have lived many lifetimes already until now considering the places ive lived, my life choices and my situations (which i put myself into). So I'm have many experiences to share and am always willing to have philosophical debates. Especially around 'death". if you are open to it.

I practice Yoga daily, movement is very important to me and i love sharing what i know. Im happy tp do classes with you.

PHILOSOPHY

Ill try anything once...and maybe if i like it ill do it again...

never regret...always learn..

always let people know if you appreciate them...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been host to many couch surfers while i was in India, some in Paris when i lived there. Many are still dear friends to me. I surfed once in Prague once but ended up hosting my host.

I would love to share your space, get to know you , whatever you are comfortable to reveal to me. I always have things to do, so ill do my best to be out of your way as well. I'm super clean and organised and loved to cook. Can teach you to make some great chai in different ways too.
I also have my yoga mat which im very comfy sleeping on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A trek that i led as Guide in the Sahyadris, its was a 2night affair. We got completely lost, and it turned out to be a crazy adventure. When it was over, i was so scared my clients would be annoyed but they told me it was the best time of their lives

Arunachal Pradesh in North East India. Being rescued by the military.

Present time:
My current trip of exploration. I'd love to share my experience with you.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yoga, Contact Improvisation, Living healthy, Movement, Thai Massage

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a very easy guest. I usually have things i want to do, so i'm happy to do some of them with you, if you would like to. Im also happy to stay out of your way and we share stories and experiences while we can.
I always have my Yoga mat that im super comfy to sleep on. I just need blankets if its cold. I also have my pillow.

Im very clean, organised and always find myself cleaning up other peoples spaces. (hey , but dont accept me becos of this). I'm eager to share with you and make a friend. I dont want to just find a host. I want to make connections.
