CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world. If not physically then at least through other people's stories.

ABOUT ME

Mmmerrrr...we should hang out, swap music, tell jokes and stories, and hopefully part ways with a renewed faith in humanity.

PHILOSOPHY

Listen, share, learn and eat together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately at this time, I am unable to host anyone, but will be more than happy to drag anyone all around my city to experience the sights, sounds and tastes; or perhaps simply meet up for a chat and coffee.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I think reading through Finnegans Wake is definitely one of them. I've yet to attempt a second read through.
2. Walking to the top of Mt. Baldy alone on my birthday, completely underestimating the extent of the cold, and jogging down the mountain to catch the sunset on the chairlift.
3. Hiking in the rain to find a hidden lagoon in Krabi.
4. Camping in the desert in Jaisalmer near the India/Pakistan border.
5. Experienced a white-knuckle ride in a Jeep to catch up with an train from Jaisalmer back to Delhi.
6. Barbecued and chatted with amazing couchsurfers on a beach in Hong Kong from dusk till dawn.
