ABOUT ME

I'm Umang, 36 and an electronics engineer turned entrepreneur. Born and brought up in mumbai. I've lived in a few places around the world and have been able to host and meet couchsurfers everywhere I've lived. This includes Mumbai, Calgary, Toronto, Bangkok, Colombo, Dubai, Istanbul, Hoboken, Singapore and now Pittsburgh.
I've hosted, surfed and shared amazing couchsurfing stories and memories with over 500 people from across the world
Just moved back to the US with my lovely (from tennessee!) wife and found our little piece of heaven in Pittsburgh !

PHILOSOPHY

One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. "Which road do I take?" she asked. "Where do you want to go?" was his response. "I don't know," Alice answered. "Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."
- Lewis Carroll.
