About Me

I am a digital entrepreneur based out of Melbourne. I love travelling to places all across the world and appreciating the beauty that nature has to offer. Being a tree-hugger myself, I love volunteering for tree plantations and maintenance whenever possible. I love to see the world in a simplified lens to create a human to human connect. Fortunate to have found a similar soul - Anushree as my wife, who helps me keep my life simple and sweet. I love to cook at home daily and surprise myself with different variations of the recipes I try. Travel has helped me discover many tastes, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, both me and my wife love cooking them together. Presently, in love with the ginger tea and some great company for some chit-chat. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel helps me connect with myself and explore the limitless opportunities that life throws at us. Both me and my wife Anushree, love meeting people from different cultures and places across the world. We have been to 15 countries so far and still have a long way to go. :) Badly bitten by the wanderlust bug, being a couchsurfer helps in making this journey more memorable with a global community you know about. Me and my wife would be glad to host people from across the globe and also meet hosts when we travel. Cheers to wanderlust - one world, one couch-surfing community!

Music, Movies, and Books

Present love - Shape of You, fan of Linkin Park, Fort Minor. Mostly love playing the popular BillBoard songs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydive at Sydney with my wife from 14000 feet. Thinking of that I am a bit scared to do that again. :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing what we know is the best gift we have for others. The readiness to unlearn and the act of pondering over what we get to know from our environment strongly shapes our lives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The unique observations as an Indian (Bengali) who has grown up in a small town and presently living in Melbourne. The subtle nuances of a simple Indian lifestyle and some yoga. Cooking experience of Indian delicacies especially Bengali cuisine. Picturesque walking trails in and around the city. Last and not the least, a humble place to stay while you are discovering one of the most livable cities of the world - Melbourne.
