About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Practise my lessons learnt in life!

ABOUT ME

I am an easygoing pleasant person who loves fun and adventure. I love meeting new people and having different and unique experiences. I am usually nice to people until someone breaks my trust.

Essentially, I am an introvert. So, I may not be chatty at the first meeting. Once I get more familiar, I am more friendly and sociable.

PHILOSOPHY

Your greatest power is the power to choose!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CouchSurfing is a phenomenon, which happened to me, and to which I am now addicted! I was an active member of the CS community in Bangalore and have participated in almost all the activities organized there, which were plenty, with each more unusual than the other.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love the CS spirit and ideology, my main reason for joining. My experience with other CS members in Bangalore have been awesome and they are now part of my close circle of friends. I have met one of my 'BFFs' through CS. So, I am eternally grateful.

My CS experience in Canada has been enlightening and adventurous. What I have found is that no matter what country you come from, CS members everywhere are great human beings and deserve only the best in life.
