To explore as much of the world & broaden perspective, knowledge bank, living with a positive & meaningful existence. I believe in live & let live philosophy. On a continuous quest of searching ownself and gaining a true sense of universal impartiality.
I find interest in connecting people from new territories, new cultures. Exploring is my core nature. I love cycling, reading books, articles, watching documentaries, trekking in the wild, connecting with nature, roaming around the streets of new cities with camera. As being a mariner and backpacker, a long period of time I stay outside of my country. I will try my best to be part of someone's journey of experiencing my motherland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the base of inner peace sometimes lies in relating to nature and people & relation depends on communicating efficiently. The whole world is open to learn. It's upto you to take it or leave it and being blessed of getting a human life, why not? Probably one of the reasons, i choosed to be a sailor. Exploring new territories, interacting with people from new cultures satisfy my soul. More people are out there want to explore like me. Couchsurfing is true blessing for this community.
