PHILOSOPHY
Dreams are free so dream BIG ! those who dont have dreams dont have much in life...
If you sometimes feel a little hopeless, frustrated or depressed...always remember that YOU were once the fastest and the most victorious little sperm out of millions :-)
MY MESSAGE : 1. The people around you are only messengers who deliver your karma to you. Knowingly or unknowingly, it is you who placed the order for your karma - the messengers are merely doing their delivery job. If unhappy with the products (life experience) they delivered, wisdom lies in looking inwards and consciously ordering better products in future, rather than holding the messengers responsible for your dissatisfaction.
2. Happyness is not a destination. It is a voyage. There is no better time to be happy than right now. If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges. it is better to admit it and decide to be happy in spite of it all. It seemed to me that life was about to start. Real life. But there were some obstacle along the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, something to be given, and bills to be paid. Then life would start. I finally understood that those obstacles were life. So enjoy every moment. There isnt any road to happiness. Happiness is the road.
3. And remember -Life is an adventure to be lived, not a problem to be solved. And life is a drawing without an eraser; He who takes your hand but touches your heart is a true friend.
4. The more precisely u plan the harder destiny will hit u. So dont make an effort because the best things happen when u least expect them!
5. There's always a little truth behind every "just kidding". A little emotion behind every "i don't care". A little pain behind every its okay.. A little love behind every I hate you.. A little I need you behind every leave me alone ....
6. You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Time is your most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it. You can make more money, but you can't make more time. When you earn money from a job, your prime investment is actually the 'TIME'. When you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time. SO WHEN I AM WITH YOU, I AM GIVING YOU THE BEST OF MY TIME AND THE BEST OF MY LIFE!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
looking fwd to it :)

Interests

interested in every thing that is interesting! lol :-)

I am much into Yoga, Meditation, spirituality and in search of TRUTH to rediscover the substance and goal of human life. I love Ayurveda and I am a passionate Ayurveda cook and practitioner! I am trying to unleash the power of mind to achieve inner peace. Our life is a message to the people around us. So I try to make sure that the message is positive !

The people around you are only messengers who deliver your karma to you. Knowingly or unknowingly, it is you who placed the order for your karma – the messengers are merely doing their delivery job. If unhappy with the products (life experience) they delivered, wisdom lies in looking into ourselves and consciously ordering better products in future.

I am a PHOTOGRAPHER too. I am a person. A man, a son, a brother. I am someone’s soul mate, 21 grams of happiness, a friend, a shoulder. I am someone’s lover, a writer, a dreamer. And, as it happens, I am a photographer.
I am a people photographer. It is the act of being human, the person, his story that catches my gaze, my breath and, even if for a moment, my love. I will fall in love with you. Not as a man falls in love with a woman,or a girl falls in love with a boy. No.As a story-teller falls in love with a story.
Nothing else in the world matters to me but the moment I see you for who you are. The moment I see you, the moment that I choose to immortalize to my best ability.

Besides photography, I am into diving and piloting air craft and watching movies. Latin American dance (I Dance Salsa, Argentine Tango, Swing,Jive, Bachata, Rumba and Merengue), Ayurvedic COOKING,Play guitar and sing, watching sunrise and sunsets! traveling, live bands, dining out, lots of music and singing, fine arts, culture and poetry,
