I am an Indian citizen who has immigrated to Toronto, Canada with my wife, Chandni Roy. Both of us share the love for traveling and we have taken every opportunity possible to travel in whichever place we are. I am an IT Consultant by profession and has just recently quit my corporate life to dedicate a year to travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are a couple living in Toronto on an Indian passport. We quit our corporate jobs and are attempting a Round the World trip spanning 6 continents, 20+ countries and 7+ months. We would be one of the first to do so on an Indian passport.

In this trip we would love to meet locals and understand the local perspective of the region we are visiting.

We would also love to share our travel stories and help our hosts with their East Coast Canada trip or India's trip in case they are planning one since we have traveled both these regions extensively

Music, Movies, and Books

Love reading books on The greatest Indian epic - "Mahabharata". This epic is bigger than Odyssey and Iliad together.

Can binge on Travel shows and travel documentaries. Anthony Bourdain, Andrew Zimmern, Ewan McGregor, Charley Boorman are few of my favorite Travel celebrities

Similarly follow few travel blogs like Nomadic Matt, The Planet D very religiously for inspiration

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Road trip all across Northern Ireland, South Africa and Jamaica. Motorcycle trips in many parts of Western India.
