PHILOSOPHY

I would love to enjoy new things.. and every thing that is old is a culture for me and culture becomes tradition. I am open for new adventure and wish to preserve the old.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have an appetite for other cultures and languages. Life is short and I am not sure if I could travel the whole world. I wish travel a bit and wish to bring some to my home.

And so are my parents, my mother loves to cook for people, exchange recipes, and my dad and brother, loves to speak about travelling.

Over all our family enjoys travelling and host people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music basically depends on my mood. I listen to proper classic Indian, Austrian cello and violin, celtic, soft rock, Deep house, Indi. I do follow a couple of Australian country music they are the best if you are on a road trip.

Thanks to my Italian house mates, never thought I could enjoy house music parties but I should say they are the best.

Follow me on my spotify, you can enjoy a whole package of me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had known at least three people from an European nation and it was the amazing part. I could say "cheers" in almost all the languages in Europe.. Lithuenia to portugese and Norway to Italy..

Unplanned road trip in England. The place to stay was decided only few moments before we had a clue where exactly were on the map.. until then just enjoying the place..

Barbeque on sennen cove(South edge of England) at midnight and suddenly realized the high tide would block our way back and had to really run with all our stuffs..

Teach, Learn, Share

Picked up enjoying different culture and language from European exchange students while I lived, partied and traveled with them in the UK..

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experience, some how when I look back I see myself living with proper English people for four months, followed by proper Spanish, then came the Germans, the French, the Dutch, the Colombians and the Italians.

I am an Indian and I have good experience with the Asians.
