Businessperson by the day and artist at all other times. Things I love - Stories, Music, Travelling and Conversations. I travel to know more about others and in the process a little bit more about myself. If I could master just one skill, it has to be Storytelling.

And from where I see, I still have a long way to reach there. Nevertheless I am moving in that direction one step a day. Looking forward to catching up with fellow Storytellers and Couchsurfers on the way!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I travel to know about different ways in which life can be lived, other than the one I am already living. So, essentially culture, people and stories are the most crucial part of my travelling experience apart from nature, architecture and monuments.

I was recommended Couchsurfing by a friend who is himself an avid and active traveller. Going by his description and his experience of meeting / staying with Couchsurfers, I could imagine no better way to know well the place I am visiting.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The most amazing thing I have done so far is visit the Himalayas - once on the wheels (biking expedition through Ladakh) and once on feet (trekking in Har ki Dun, a Himalayan mountain). Both these experiences have had a profound effect on me which led me to writing about them. Here's a link to the blog about these experiences, mostly about Ladakh though:

Though I must mention, I was equally spellbound by Europe and its culture, especially by cities of Prague and Barcelona.
