About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making every moment count...

ABOUT ME

Interestingly, i started on CS very recently. I got wind of CS during a bag packing trip in Vietnam of summer 2009. A wonderful french couple introduced to me what CS was but i never really thought about it till then when I headed to India and Nepal for a month and half. I really love the CS community for their active participation and a common goal - to provide cross cultural exchanges.

Updates: embarking on a new life :D
I just love food and did i say i love to cook as well! I wanna travel the world to learn to cook from master chefs or anyone who loves eating and cooking.

I love to travel too! Wanna start something cool soon so that everyone can enjoy what the world has got to offer.

i love to travel so i guess i'm at the right places with the right people. I am so looking forward to meet new friends, eat exotic food, try new things, experiencing cultures, and admiring beautiful sceneries. We live life once, so make the best of it.

PHILOSOPHY

Making the best out of everything, no fear

No one should in their capacity judge the way we are.

Conformity only kills. It doesn't grow you

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect... ya and i really mean reflect...

"Do not waste the vast majority of your life doing something you hate so that you can spend the small remainder sliver of your life in modest comfort. You may never reach that end anyway."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted people and take people around...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First Couch Surfing in Srinagar, Kashmir, by the best host and family of Burhan. Though I was hampered by curfews, the family always made me feel very comfortable at home. Hosted some people in Singapore and the experience was incredible. I have since been hooked on couch surfing. Definitely a great way to meet different people of different cultures.

Interests

Definitely Travelling, Outdoor sports - kayking, volleyball, soccer, rugby, waterpolo, golf. Hanging out with people over drinks and being there for people who needs help most.

But i'm definitely most interested in cooking and eating! Later preferred ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing a clear night sky with all the constellations. Singapore is a light polluted city and we don't get such sights here.

The sunrise at Poon Hill in Annapurna Region.

Helping people who needs help most. Such joy derives in seeing the smile on other peoples' faces.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: That life isn't just all about profits and targets. Learning to love your love ones and treasuring your life is the most important thing one can teach a person.

Learn: To love and appreciate people more for who they really are. And to learn new recipes everyday.

Share: Good times, fun, joy and laughter.
