Hi,
I work and live in Toronto. I am a Policy Analyst specializing in policies on Public health care, public engagement in local governance leveraging technology and entrepreneurship as a culture. I love reading books, travelling, yoga and meditation, soccer, music, documentaries, and exchanging ideas on almost anything under the Sun. I have been to 19 countries so far which has immensely contributed to my learning curve.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet other travellers and see the world through their eyes and their experiences. I am very interested in meeting new people and learning from them. I am brand new here but it seems this is a great platform to meet and learn from amazing people I will not get a chance to meet otherwise. I look forward to some great conversations and experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am slowly and successfully managing to evolve as a person who can lead an active and more conscious life with my Actions (Karmas), showing little or absolute dispassion to the Outcomes (Consequences). This is making my life more blissful and meaningful.
Honestly, there are many amazing things that I have done and it's very difficult to pick one and it would be a sheer injustice to leave others. Hence, shared the one which added to my inward experiences rather than the outward experiences I had in my life so far :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Yoga and meditation, spiritual, political and chat on the interaction between technology and policy, social practices, languages, society and oneness of diversity. Love to learn from people and share life experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A respectful connection, respect for viewpoint diversity, interesting conversations and showing around the Greater Toronto Area (GTA-Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton) of course if I am available, and couch (if available) and sharing ideas and experiences.
