About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Fighting for Human Rights

ABOUT ME

I have dedicated my life to serving the poorest of the poor. I have worked with children in some of the worst off slums in the world and have realized that there is no other place I would rather dedicated my lives work.
I love meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I am not into fancy hotels, clubs, expensive bars, or hanging people who are materialistic. I love discussing world politics, drinking wine out of a box and attempting to change the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Live, Love and Learn

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

"The world needs dreamers and the world needs doers but above all the world needs dreamers who do."

www.speak4silentvoices.com is the website for my non-profit organization for street children in Calcutta, India.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not been super involved in couch surfing since I started my profile two years ago. My life is pretty but and I wish I had more time to focus on hosting people. However, I have met a couple of couch surfers while on the road and have really enjoyed the experiences.

Interests

Learning, going on adventures, wishing I could fly, studying politics and human rights. Talking to interesting people.
