Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I enjoy staying and meeting with natives or people from different cultures.. which helps me virtually travel to the places which I have not been to, yet. It also helps with my savings :) While hosting, I love talking and sharing my insight into the Indian culture/yoga/food etc. I offer Free Dental Checkups to all couch surfers and also free Intro Guided Meditation sessions. If available, I love to show my city around to overseas travelers as well.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music-vast and versatile, from Jim Morrison to JLo; Hindi Bollywood, Rock/Metal, Romantic slow music, Trance, etc Movies-Enjoy almost all kinds, Romantic/Action/Comedies/Art/Sci-fi, Horror/Mysteries Books-I read whatever is worth reading :P
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Something(s) that made me feel amazing(not sure if they were amazing things to do): Stayed in a Yogic Ashram for over half an year after quitting my job (in search of existential truth) Co-piloted a helicopter flight Jumped off a cliff from an altitude of 12000 feet Climbed the Highest peak of the state Maharashtra (Kalsubai, height 5400m) in India. Helped build a school in Thulo Pakhar, a village in Nepal as a part of Earthquake Relief Founded my Dental non-profit to create oral cancer awareness when I was 24
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to teach/share my life, experiences with other people and know theirs. It makes my journey of life double as interesting and adventurous. I ask a lot of questions, an inquisitive soul that I am, so be prepared to tell me all about your history/culture/people and yourselves!
