Right. I'm of Indian decent, born in Africa, raised in England, and usually in a '4th country' every summer. I try to be my own best friend rather than anyone's foe. From best friends to girlfriends, Life has taught me not to depend too much on all the good things that people tell you. They would change in a heartbeat, if it suited them so! Nevertheless, I drink life to the fullest (Shakespeare). When things or people go bad, as Charlie Chaplin once said, Just Smile! Take the bad with the good.

Which is why I came on Couch Surfing. There are genuinely such wonderful people everywhere to balance the equation of the Bad Eggs. It isn't really a cruel world. I have had the good fortune of getting acquainted with glorious people surfing across Europe and Asia so far. And I encourage others to cultivate this resource.

Finally, I am athletic, a Neat and Clean bloke, an exceptional Handyman, and a God fearing citizen of the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's not about the place you visit, It's about The PEOPLE. I love to meet diverse people and they don't know it, but they love to meet me too! Nothing like total strangers connecting in the most random of circumstances. We owe it to ourselves and the future to break down all barriers of race, religion, sex and stereotypes.

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh yeah, I'm a pretty good teacher of sorts. How to travel the world on an impressive budget. How to command an impressive mastery over the English language. How to fix things here and there. blah blah blah.

Even though I have been immersed in several cultures, I am very open to learning anything under the sun, and beyond.

Share? Scroll down a notch!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Timeless knowledge on various fields, culture, peoples, places on a physical and spiritual level.

My house is an open book. Take what you want, do what you want, just don't wreck the place! I got a car and can drive real well, particularly when am drunk! :)
