About Me

Easy going, fairly well-travelled. I like company and enjoy my solitude. I am interested in people and their journey in life. I like to share stories and enjoy the simple pleasures of life (hiking, traveling, eating out, listening to or making music, sharing mantra for living, etc.).

I was born in the foothills of the Himalayas (Shimla) and have since lived and worked in India, Virginia, Silicon Valley and Hawaii. I currently live in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is an incredible way to connect with like minded travelers and hosts. To be open to new ideas, cultures, emotions and transformative experiences. Currently (June-Sept 2019) on a 3 month road trip up through the US East Coast, then through the Maritime Provinces of Canada, returning through the Great Lakes.
