People coming from Chennai :
1. Take the bus from Main Bus Station (Koyambedu) for Pondicherry
2. Take the bus which goes via Tindivanam (NOT the ECR road route) because its faster and the bus passes closer to Auroville/my home.
3. Get down at the Toll gate at Pondicherry

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My place is the melting point for most backpackers and tourists coming to Auroville. I have hosted more people last year than all other hosts in Auroville/Pondicherry combined. I do this to interact and learn. Its not a free exotic hotel to crash for the night. Share stories and Interact with other volunteers in commune.
Everyone is friendly in the neighborhood. Smile a lot. Have fun. :)
Teach, Learn, Share
Permaculture, organic farming, herbal medicine garden, spiritual healing, yoga, meditation, arts and crafts. We have awesome soap, incense, candle making workshops in my backyard. Village folks also come to share their stories and crafts they know.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Meet up for coffee/drink in my organic farm/spiritual commune, show around Auroville.
If you don't have ANY place to stay, you can call me and I will either accommodate you at my place even if my place is full/not available/not hosting/etc.
or find someone who can host you for the night.
