About Me

I love to travel and have recently completed few short trips across India, Dubai and Thailand. I would like to see more of India in the near future. Few destinations in mind outside of India include Vietnam and Cambodia. Spent 2 years in New Zealand, and would to visit the place again because its stunningly beautiful and people are amazing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me being raised in a small piece of heaven, Goa is not a place, it's a state of mind. The way I look at my home and the experiences I would like my hosts to have while visiting Goa motivated me to get onto couchsurfing. Being born and raised here, I know a few spots around the place most touristy people would otherwise skip. Not top secret but nice spots. I've met some friends while travelling in New Zealand who recommended me to their friends for their stay in Goa. I've hosted 19 travelers in my simple home in Goa so far and hopefully they have carried back good memories with them.

Interests

I work with a NGO Foundation where we teach underprivileged kids in India the sport of rugby. I believe that sports, especially a sport like rugby which has such good values engraved in it, is a very powerful tool which can help a child grow more holistically and well rounded.
