About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to meet people from other countries/cultures, and one day travel to some of these places

ABOUT ME

I was born in India and worked for a few years there, before I came to the US to study. I'm presently working in Seattle. At school I had a diverse set of classmates, and some good buddies from all over the world. It was a great experience getting to know and work with people from different backgrounds/cultures. I've previously hosted people via Hospitalityclub previously, and have had a great time doing so. Hoping to meeting some more people via CS

PHILOSOPHY

I don't have a strong philosophy that I live by. But if there's one quote that summarizes my thinking right now, it's this one by Randy Pausch "It is not the things we do in life that we regret on our death bed. It is the things we do not. Find your passion and follow it."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host people, depending on my schedule. I happen to travel often, and might not be in town at all times. But would love to help when I am. I can provide city information, or come by just to hang around if you're passing by, and looking for some company.
