Started the rat race with the typical IT profile, then did a paradigm pivot into ATC which, in addition to the love for my profession, allows me immense opportunities to travel and have a pretty decent work life balance. I discovered the joys of solo traveling years back when I hopped onto a train to Hasimara on a whim and backpacked solo to Bhutan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, explore new places like a local and discover new experiences and things to do

Interests

I love backpacking and the hostel style of travel. Local cuisines, culture and exploring offbeat places intrigues me. Hiking in the mountains bring me peace, and the energy of music festivals are irresistible.
