PHILOSOPHY

There is a lot of negativity in today’s world. We can make a difference! One person at a time! One family at a time! Spread some positive feeling amongst mankind. I think, CS provides the best way to interact with people and the opportunity to know the better side of human life. Let’s make this world better place to live – slowly but surely!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Indian vegetarian cooking or The Nawab's Hyderabadi or North Indian style Indian dishes that include chicken or sea food. Sanoor, our son will share his love of animals, his love of Robotics and books with you. Saniya, our daughter, will share her love of the Model United Nations and her participation there. Overall we are all happy to share our stories and anxious to learn about your city, culture and lifestyle. The children are enthusiastic and ready to learn all they can :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share an honest conversation with my hosts! I love music and I would be delighted to share in your love of music from your part of the world only to discover that music has no boundaries and touches each heart alike! May be we can exchange some music too :) I love to cook and would be happy to either cook or help out with a meal or exchange recipes. The kids are book worms and will talk to you about their unique perspectives on books you may have read as well. I always like to bring my hosts a little something from where we are. We look forward to meeting you as couch surfers and leaving you as friends forever.
