About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go with the flow, no control.

ABOUT ME

Constantly in the process of finding myself, again. I just keep losing me. I'm always in the last place I look, too, which is as annoying as expected.

I was born in India, but raised in the US since 3 months old. I've been living in Norway for the past 15 years. Don't ask where I'm from without expecting an explanation.

I'm currently in a never-ending "transitional period"... again. Hence, the whole finding myself thing.

btw, I say Spanish and Marathi, but they are just a little bit better than my Italian, mostly due to lack of use. So, sorry, in advance, for mangling the language. Laughter is expected.

PHILOSOPHY

Be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Had a lull, but opening the place up more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love Couch Surfing!! It's a little scary how many people I have so much in common with - completely unexpected and I definitely would not have met if not for Couch Surfing.

So far, all of my experiences have been beyond positive that I feel I've gotten a new surge of energy.

Interests

What do I like!? Having a good time and almost anything that makes that possible. There are just too many things to put in this little box, but it ranges from nothing to everything.

  • flying
  • surfing
  • boxing

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything with a beat, anything with happy endings, anything with happy endings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: Kerala, India- a flock of parrots flying over me in the coconut forests. Awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: different perspectives of reality.
Teach = Share: my own.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Umm. That's complicated. But I'm complicated. And easy going.
