About Me

For a long period in my life, I tried to 'fit in' by taking the well trodden path. I quit corporate slavery in 2012; I was unable to understand why it wasn't making me happy when everyone else around me was content with a fat paycheck and a life on hire. Then started a journey of self awareness and a deeper understanding of life and purpose and I've never looked back. I make music from the heart, speak my mind, and hang out with people who care about what going on around us. Kindness, loyalty, purpose and meaning are very important to me. Life is too short to be spent doing things which dont add meaning to your life. I've travelled a bit but intend to step it up. I try and travel with my music rig so I can collaborate woth local musicians everywhere in the world. I look forward to meeting free spirited people from around the world, good times and good conversation.

I've grown up in Mumbai...the hustle bustle and the madness is all too familiar. I have a range of skills which have proven to be valuable. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've realised that your future best friends are not necessarily from where you are. I have found kindred friendships and beautiful people from all around the world who I have connected with from the heart. The more we share, the more we learn amd the more we live. I have a small place which I share with two other people so my couch may not be available right now. But I am happy to be your friend and trusted local go-to-local during your stay in India. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have about India or Mumbai in particular. Come visit my tiny home studio if you want be involved in the musical process or just listen together :) I'd like to travel as much as I can and meet true people from all around the world
