I completed my engineering 4 years ago from IIT and since then I have tried different types of things that excite me. I was a management consultant, then started my own venture, which bombed. Then I had worked in election campaign management core team. And now again I am running a technology focused venture.

I am ambitious when it comes to career. But I try to balance it enough traveling (sometimes spontaneous). As a person I am an extrovert, analytical, friendly and try to make sure everyone around me is happy. I love music, dance and I am a hardcore theatre fan!

My task in Mumbai nowadays is to discover and eat/drink at all good places. Finding out unexplored places in the city.

I am an aspiring full time traveler! So if you have any idea on how to achieve that fast, I am all ears.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Explore! Gain perspective! Meet people who are complete strangers but are tied together with one common thought - experience as many things as possible in a small amount of time we have.

I love to share and I am fundamentally against the concept of ownership of all material things in life.

In all my trip I talk to locals, stay with them, eat with them and try to absorb their way of life. The more I do this, the more I get fascinated with the world. I like learning this way more than scanning through series of articles and pictures. It's more real.

I have worked in core campaign team of the current Prime minister during his election campaign.

I take care of education of a slum child
Also, I jumped into a chilled pool (1 degree) at 2 in the morning because I felt like doing it 😉

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach few Indian dance steps, most used Hindi words, cook indian food and math.

I would like to learn anything that you are willing to teach that you think will be useful

What I Can Share with Hosts
