About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Sometimes You'll find me in a curly ball of hair. I am outgoing, very openminded. My humour is greatly varied, I enjoy traditional laughs, but find 'the awkward moment' toequinchingly funny as well. I'll tell you the rest about me when we meet.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy respectfully

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted as many as I could when I could. Now I spread the word in a sane manner. Think of and discuss pros and cons about the site with CS'ers when I meet them (which is pretty much always!)

Hiking in amazing places and made friends for life in the Mumbai CS circle, spontaneously hosting a Moroccan refugee that I ran into on our local train station.

Interests

Being, travelling, singing, reading, watching, feeling, crying, dancing, eating, thinking. Thinking about thinking. Thinking about thinking about thinking!! Ok, sorry. Unexpected behaviour is more fun!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked down a crowded Bombay street only wearing a rice sack, a flower garland and my pinky snow white skin. And I lived to tell the tale.

Perfomed in a buddhist cave more than 2000 years old (untill the janitor threw us out)
