Overview
About Me
Tech entrepreneur building products since 18, always exploring the intersections of innovation, philosophy, and psychology. I’m a seeker at heart, constantly in pursuit of deep conversations about life, the universe, and everything in between.
I live by the belief: “The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war.” Preparation, in both life and work, is essential. I find profound meaning in synchronicity, as Carl Jung put it: “Synchronicity is the ever-present reality for those who have eyes to see.” It’s the invisible thread connecting our experiences, if we’re willing to notice.
Leadership, to me, means being bold enough to stand apart: “To lead the orchestra, you have to turn your back to the crowd.” I embrace uncertainty because, as John Allen Paulos wisely said, “Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.”
Life, as John Lennon reminds us, “is what happens to you when you’re busy planning it,” and I strive to be present in the now, while moving forward decisively—because as Osho said, “With decisiveness is the birth of a man; until then, you’re a boy.”
I’m here for meaningful exchanges and shared experiences, eager to connect with those who seek to explore the world, the mind, the soul, and the heart.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I’m here to meet travelers from all over the world and exchange stories, experiences, and culture. It’s about building real connections that go beyond just being hangout buddies while traveling. For me, the culture and stories we share are what make the journey truly memorable.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music? I’m all about Solomun, Rufus, The Weeknd, Lane 8, Technical Hitch, Mandragora, and Eric Prydz. As for books, I dig the discourses of Osho and Jiddu Krishnamurti—neither of them wrote any books, but their talks have been turned into some great reads. Autobiography of a Yogi is another favorite. Movies? I’m into everything from Mr. Nobody and Gone Girl to Whiplash, La La Land, Forrest Gump, Shutter Island, Interstellar, Pulp Fiction, and of course, Inception. And yeah, Game of Thrones is my all-time favorite show.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Sure, I’ve done bungee jumping and skydiving—exciting, but pretty standard. The real fun? Once, we built a boat out of buckets and random recyclable things and actually sailed it across a pond. It wasn’t exactly seaworthy, but it worked! Definitely one of those unexpected adventures that stands out.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can’t really teach you much—I’m still a student of life myself. But if there’s something you think I can help with, feel free to ask! Always up for learning and sharing along the way.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can whip up some tasty precooked Indian food for you, and I’d love to share stories and mythologies from my culture. I can also give you advice on how to start those things you’ve always wanted to pursue. Plus, I’m always up for discussing philosophy and art—let’s dive into some thought-provoking conversations!
