I am a student of physics. I have been taught to look at the nature in mathematical equations, but I prefer kind hearts of people around me.

I am from India, a bit shy but open-minded about any or everything. I am easy to convince, but I am observant and can bust you if you were fibbing. Haha! No, I am kidding. I like talking and learning about things. You can strike a conversation, and you will find me interested. Especially I find it interesting to hear people talking about their work(s). I really enjoy seeing how world has such a vast variety of professions, and how bad we are that we do not respect them all. At heart everyone is pure, and is making effort to do great at something- that in itself makes her/his profession great. Do tell me what you do, in detail and with passion.

All other details, when we meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to save some money to travel to a new place where I can Couchsurf. I am not joking.

And of course, the benefit of meeting the awesome locals. I believe that a city is not always presented in most honest way to the outsiders, and getting to know subtle things about it from someone who has lived or is living there is a big big big thing that couchsurfers can gain.

Interests

Nuclear science.

Music, art, theater, cinema- all that is colorful....!

Photography: I am learning to frame people and things.

Food: I love cooking and eating. Love, a lot!!

Travelling: I want to see everything, but I am lazy. I end up going out to beautiful gardens, to sleep in the lawn and sun bath.

People: I like them, their jobs and their lives. But, I do not like crowds. Especially not of the kind which assembles in front of the Mona Lisa in Museum of Louvre in Paris.

Music, Movies, and Books

Musics: Indian classical stuff. Some old, and some peppy bollywood songs. Some awesome country music from the Americas. And Jazz, and Blues!

Movies: Again some colorful old pieces from Indian cinema. Some black and white pieces, like Seven Samurai of Kurosawa and so on. I am quite open to any kind of films.

Books: I am not a reader kind, at least till now. I have phases, like moon. Some times, I enjoy a book and can read for a month. At times, I cannot read something for more than an hour in a month. To give you an idea of how less-read I am, Catcher in the Rye was a highly enjoyable novel which was gifted by a good friend.

I love poetry, of words in music and of frames in films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteered extensively, under my capacities, for a great organization in India which tries to expose the overtly-westernized youth of the country to some of the abstract, subtle, inspiring and mysterious aspects of the cultural heritage of India and world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more of a learner, right now. I am learning how to teach and how to share.

I believe in simplicity. I can learn things if you make it simple. And my principle of sharing is also quite simple. If you are hungry, then you surely deserve a right on the bread that I have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My tiny experience, and my Indian recipes.
My laugh with those who like to crack jokes, and my warmth with those who are having a bad time.
