About Me

“A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for.” I try to stick to this quote as much as possible.

I am an entrepreneur who wants to improve and fix the education system in India and eradicate child poverty in this huge mystical land. I'm always buzzing with a lot of ideas and love to discuss history, music, football and the traditions in various cultures.

I am seldom perturbed by difficult situations (meditate daily and it has it's positive effects. Try it!). Shy at first (want to break that), but love talking endlessly about anything once I get to truly know someone. Also, a very rational person who respects and makes complete effort to understand nonconforming views.

Oh, and I love getting lost in cities and towns, trying out local cuisines and experimenting new music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
