About Me

CURRENT MISSION

am a technology-buff-- and am here to connect with people-- to learn more about the world and to have new adventures, interesting conversations and possibly exchange technology knowledge

ABOUT ME

My life revolves around a bunch of things that give me a rush--

includes technology, pets, helping stray animals, gymming, rock-climbing, books, travel; building a billion-dollar company; changing the world; standing up for what's right, good coffee, well made drinks, new types of awesome food, new places etc...

Doesnt include: too many material things; ego ; status ; excessive focus on appearances, order, routine, bowing before authority and authority figures etc...

PHILOSOPHY

Some quotes that describe my thoughts abt life:
* "Not all those who wander are lost"

* "live and let live"

* "they say great talent brings it's own opportunities- but intense desire brings not just it's own opportunities- but it's own talents as well"-- Bruce Lee--
that's why whatever I do I do it with all my heart-- whether it is work OR whether I am engaging in a conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Do everything I can to help people travelling to my city and my country- and to ensure they have a positive experience here.

Also, I couchsurf, host, meet for coffee and participate in cs gatherings.

Interests

* I love pets and animals.
* I like spending time in company of nature.
* I like songs/music with meaningful lyrics and videos- to make me think and inspire me.
* I like reading.
* I like checking out new markets, new places and new foodstuffs.
I like meeting new people and listening to their perspectives and learning about life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I looove all books. And my taste in reading spans a variety of genres-- and while I am more of a action person rather than a bookish person-- I just love talking to others who like to read-- if you have read something-- name it-- chances are I've read it too OR I will read it soon!!!

There are many movies that I really like.
But I am not someone who watches a movie every week or every month.

Music:
Rush (yup! the Canadian group that has Geddy Lee)
Bryan Adams (just one song! guess which one...)
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
All old and sad punjabi songs... especially those which have music videos.
And many more...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have loved.

Teach, Learn, Share

Am happy to share thoughts, advice, knowledge, help.

I love to learn new things, see things from a different point of view.

About teaching-- I would describe myself as a person from who others can learn-from; rather than say "I can teach..."- since I dont like projecting myself as any kind of authority figure... and while I follow all rules; I have a aversion to authority and boundaries....
