Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to learn about new cultures and people is to spend time with them in a setting that is informal and un-rushed. To me, this is the most important offering that CS brings.

Interests

Solving problems :) Recently built an inexpensive air purifier to solve Delhi's pollution problem. Earlier, started India's first daily deal e-com website . In my consulting career, solving client's problems has been the best way to grow.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Motorcycle ride in a figure-of-eight around India. From Leh to Kerala (4000 kilometers) and back (another 4000). Done over a span of 2 years, this entire ride was an amazing experience - found myself, found my soulmate :)
