About Me

Having had so many incredible travel experiences, I founded a company creating CultureCloud, that allows world travelers to connect in instantly with locals or fellow travelers based on your interests. I also work in technology consulting in the Life Sciences space. I'm in the process of co-authoring a book about travel and international perspective with a friend from Karachi :)

I'm always working hard on various initiatives but love meeting new people and showing them the awesome things Philadelphia has to offer. Philly is super under-rated and i'm excited to prove why it's great.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always been really lucky to stay with friends wherever I travel and want to give back to and connect with a broader community. More than just traveling i'm always looking to connect with a culture and find the places I would never find as a tourist.

As a host, i'm willing to do the same for anyone coming through. Of particular interest, it would be great to have the opportunity to practice German with :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once flew around the world in 8 days. The absolute coolest natural wonder I have visited was Iguazu Falls in Brazil/Argentina.

Teach, Learn, Share

I live by "It's kind of fun to do the impossible" ~Walt Disney

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sometimes I am quite busy - but I will do my best to make time to show you a cool spot or two in the city tailored to what you like to do, be it history or nightlife!

Always down to chill at the end of the day and watch a good movie or documentary - am always looking for opportunities to practice German.
