About Me

Nothing is more captivating for me like long walks and longer conversations.

I am always looking for adventures and meeting people who are cheerfull and can get me high on adrenaline when it comes to travel. For me its never about the destinations, its about the journey you embrace, the the people who fascinates you and the mesmerizing views.

In life i am a little laid back and not the hyper type. Definitely a happy party person with the right people.
I try to travel as much as possible, even though i am caught up with my corporate life.
On a different note i am a huge friends fan :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Doing everything i always feared of doing."

I seek stories from people who travel. I believe in the power of story telling, how it can change and influence a person.
I always travel on a budget.
Either catch a bus, or climb on it.
Pitch a tent or sleep on the bench.
Tea from a roadside stall is always full filling for me than from a restaurant.
I am fond of meeting people who are down to earth, cheerfull and who finds happiness in living the present

I want to meet travellers on the way, share experiences, travel together and maybe even pitch a tent and count the stars together.
Lets make memories :))

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to slow and alternative rock most of the times. Also love Indian fusion songs and Sufi, because they make me so high on life.

I don't have a specific genres when it comes to movies. I literally watch all of them.

Books. Mm... I read whenever i find time. Mostly good books my friends recommend. That puts some insight into your life and spirituality. Books that makes me grow and evolve as a human being.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

**INDIA**
Since the year 2015, i have been trying to travel and discover india as much as possible (even though i am caught with my corporate life)
I have stories to tell, experiences to share about my country, its intimidating and full of life.
I am a traveller, experiencing every bit of my journey in its raw and transparent form. No masks, no lies.

Kodaikanal- 2017
An unplanned trip to this beautiful place, where we trekked (i mean got lost and found the place by accident) to very remote village, less know to the civilized world and how we spent the night with the villagers.

Nepal-2018
*I just cant write down the experience, the thrill and joy, because there is so much*
I will probably tell you stories about my first ever solo backpacking when we meet :)

Europe - since 2019

Switzerland : Me and my best friend made a very spontaneous decision to get down at Interlaken, and ditch our plans to backpack through Italy. The Swiss landscape are the most beautiful we have seen till date, and it just caught our soul.
We made some stupid decision to travel to top of Europe (Jungfraujoch) without any winter clothes, which turned out to be an adventure.
(All we had was a bottle of Gin to keep us warm) Oh well we made it alive even through the freezing cold and storm.
I saved my friends life on the way back (from alcohol poisoning, of course 😄).

Germany: We had some blurry, and crazy party at the October fest in Munich.

Amsterdam: what happened in Amsterdam stays in Amsterdam 😄

Prague : wow! the city is exquisite, and the cuisine is delicious.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a friendly person. You say a word and consider it done.
I think i can cook 😝. I have a little bit of OCD so i might tidy up your place for no reasons.
I am an newbie and also passionate at practicing yoga. I can teach you the basics or i can learn from you :)
