I would describe myself as a kind of person as the expression goes, as someone who 'stops and smells the roses'.

Professionally, I work as a sound recordist with foreign documentary and TV crews filming in India. I love my job and the element that it takes me to places and have experiences that would be difficult to come across even as a traveler. Plus being a freelancer it allows me to take time off and pursue things that interest me.

I go out latin social dancing regularly. I like live bands, music festivals, singing, cycling, trekking and adventure sports; recently I've taken a liking to skiing.

I am pragmatic by nature, health conscious, open minded and respectful to other peoples point of view. I like conversations, humour and cleanliness [ not in any particular order :-) ] . Non-smoker but will enjoy a glass of wine or a pint of beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One thing that I've realized is that the amazing interactions with people you meet while travelling are some of the fondest of memories you can have. So what better way to meet people while travelling and to meet people from different cultures in your own city.

I listen to a lot of genres but mostly it would be alternative, funk, reggae, soul, afro-latin music like salsa, bachata and kizomba and some soft rock, pop, interesting chart toppers and world music.

What I Can Share with Hosts

They say every man has an addiction; mine is latin dancing. Would love to pass on the poison :-). Hit me up if you would like to learn some salsa dancing (LA style) and bachata.
