I am a travel photographer. I have many stories to share. What's your story?

I am born and brought up in India in the central part of India, the name of city is Nagpur which is famous for Oranges. My parents have given me really pure cultural and religious values.

I came to Boston for higher education in 2014. And I am in love with this beautiful city. Photography is my passion and due to which I have visited each and every corner of Boston and even rooftops. I love to meet and host new people and learn about various culture. I like cooking for my guests. If I can bring a smile on my guests face then it makes my day :)

I do a lot of outdoor activities on weekends. Hiking mountains and visiting beautiful places are some of them. Its not like that I just do outdoor activities but also I like to partying with friends and new people.

I run a NGO(non-government organization) in India where I provide funds for the city Hygiene camps, plantation and for the education of Orphanage childrens.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been taught since childhood that "Atithi Devo Bhava" which means "Guests are same as Gods". So basically I would love to host guests from different part of the world. And I can also show them the beautiful places I have visited around Boston. When I came across couchsurfing I did not believe that hosting website like this is present in reality, but yes It is :)

May be in future I am going to use couchsurfing instead of renting hotel or airbnb, whenever I ll visit to new places. Most of the time I travel to different places alone for Photography and sometimes it gets too boring to stay in Hotel. Instead I would love to share my travel time with new people who are from that place.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy reading Love stories, I have read tons of those books. I also like reading articles on latest gadgets in market. Yes I am gadget freak.

I like comic movies and even TV series. I also like movies like "a pursuit of happiness" because I have gone through that kind of phase in my life.

When it comes to music I am more into Post rock kind of music which have no vocals and its instrumental only.
"God is an astronaut" , "explosions in the sky" and "we lost the sea" are few albums I like the most. Apart from that I am a great fan of "Opeth".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a 24 day cross country trip in my car in India, and I visited all cities from South to North part of India. I have never stayed in a hotel during that trip. I used to sleep in my car or somewhere in the middle of nowhere in my tent, I carried stove to cook food, I spent the least amount of money in that trip but I got the best memories out of it.

I was inspired to do this kind of survival trip because of the person "Bear Grylls" and the movies I saw like "Into the wild" and "Motorcycle Diaries"

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share any kind of knowledge I have with the next person. I would like to learn more about your lifestyle so that I can learn new things and implement it in my life.
