About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling business consultant looking for adventure, experience, and different perspectives

ABOUT ME

I am a travelling outsourcing consultant who has lived in Boston, MA, USA and New Delhi, Delhi, India. Places I have been recently are Mumbai, Goa, London, Berlin, Colorado Springs, Dallas, NY, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Tampa, Atlanta, Denver, Hyderabad, New Delhi, Coimbatore, Agra, Chicago, Minneapolis, Toronto, Detroit, Milwaukee and many more!

I love a good drink or two or twelve. I was an NCAA runner in cross country and track and field and I still love to run. I am working on a pilot's license and a skydiving license and I am always up for the most adventurous path I can take.

I love my current home in Austin, TX, USA but love travelling and seeing new places and making new friends even more. I currently have great friends living all over the US, Canada, India, the UK, and Europe.

PHILOSOPHY

A man can stand anything except the succession of ordinary days.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a very comfortable futon in a spacious three bedroom apartment (though one is used as an office) in South Austin about 15 minutes from the Airport. I am about 7 minutes by cab from downtown Austin. I also look forward to meeting new people by crashing at other surfers' pads when I travel for business and pleasure.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a few couches and had a number of surfers in Boston. No new surfers in Texas yet. So far so good!

Interests

Skydiving, flying planes, hiking, biking, running, music, sight seeing, taking pictures, sharing stories over a few drinks, and sometimes over a few too many drinks.
