Hi! Im Mukund, currently staying in Singapore. I studied here for the past 18 or so years of my life. After my year 12/high school in 2016, I joined the army for 2 years. I became an Infantry Officer and served in an active battalion as a platoon commander. At the end of 2 years, i left the army (but still in the reserve forces).

Currently im waiting to begin University in August, doing a double degree in Mechanical Engineering and Business.

Im an extroverted guy and I love meeting new people and exploring new places. I love to workout, read, travel and i LOVE music.

With everything going on in our world its easy to come to the conclusion as a 3rd person that the world has indeed gone to shit. I want to see and experience otherwise through travelling. I hope that trying out couchsurfing and documenting my travels would open my eyes up to new experiences and people!

If youve read till this point, may the force be with you friend, and I hope we meet :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If youve skipped everything else, dont skip this! My home country of Singapore is but a small one, albeit with big dreams. I realised tht i was become more culturslly insulated and decided it was time for me to get my ass out there and see the world. I dont believe in the whole "find yourself" semantics of travel. Rather im here to find the world other than the one Ive come to know.

I wish to meet likeminded and completely different people. I want to have a good conversation about life or a friendly argument about politics over shitty alchohol. I would love to explore the culture and live as the locals do.

And as a student, i dont have much but I i have had great experiences that i cant wait to share!

Thank you for reading up till this point, peace be with you friends.

Interests

I love travelling because i think its a liberating feeling to experience new perspectives and meet new people, after having lived in a safe country like SG

I like lifting (exercise) because the feeling of lifting something heavy off the ground that you couldnt some time ago gives me a kick, and its a simple hobby. All about imposing your will against gravity.

I read because I like to :) not much else here

Oh i LOVE listening to music. Every mood has a genre or song and i love exploring new music and analysing lyrics (especially hiphop). Always seen with earphones stuck into my head. Helps me focus and block out the background noice too. Love music :))

Programming is fun picked Python up recently and i enjoy the challenge. Want to become really good at it

Generally an outdoors guy enjoy partying drinking and having a good time but equally inclined towards more introverted hobbies

• drinking
• reading
• traveling
• music
• adventure
• programming
• hip hop
• lifting weights
