ABOUT ME

Hello, My name is Scott, and I grew up in Canada outside Toronto. I love to travel, and am currently living in Poona, east of Bombay. I would love to see all the corners of this beautiful world, and I am trying my best to get as far as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that openness, spontaneity, humbleness, and respect for people are very important, and I attempt to follow these characteristics in my life and travels.

I find independent traveling particularly rewarding for myself, that it is a time of clarity which allows me to sideline preconceived notions and worries and just live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently hosting in Pune, India. We have had some great guests so far and look forward to some more!

I will hopefully be traveling again soon and possibly looking for some couch-space then!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have had a few guests come stay in our Poona apartment and it has been a lot of fun.
