About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To interact and meet people from all over the world

ABOUT ME

Well, it's really difficult to sum up in a few words. I am an investment advisory by day and a singer cum photographer by night. Had my own band while in my post graduation days and so, i stay drowned into different forms of world music all the time and sing them too.

Love partying and getting down with people for a gossip or to visit places of historical importance.

Off late, i have also been writing various articles for newspapers, plus a bit of my own poetry and compositions. Planning to start a band soon with full fledged-ness, so preparations are on.

I am a nature lover and so ideally, i love walking down cold empty roads in the morning and admiring each and every aspect of nature.

That is a brief about me in a nutshell. And oh yes, i forgot, i love to DREAM. Its the best thing you can do :)

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?

Well, I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would really love to interact with people who come down to Bangalore and are really interested to see the city around. The city is historical and so there are many bits and pieces to it that sum up a good memory.

Moreover, this platform would also enable me to get down to places where i am assisted by people to learn about their cultures and historically significant places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

There has been numerous short experiences, typically because of the fact that i love talking to people and discuss on their cultures and ideals of life at large. The best things to do in Calcutta are to roam around places of history and try out the food and that is more than an experience.

Once, one of my buddies, who is residing in Washington DC came down to Kolkata as he was working at the Missionaries of Charity and we did have a good time helping him out together.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly comedy and horror or thriller movies. I watch movies of all languages. Music is world as i had already mentioned, i do some research in music too and so it is my primary area. Not much into books except those on financial consulting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Umm .. nothing much ... but i have felt lightning stroking down just next to my nose at a distance of a fingernail.
