Philosophy
My guiding principle is simple: Live and let live. I believe in respecting individuality and fostering a supportive environment for everyone.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe travel is about more than just seeing new places—it's about connecting with people, cultures, and experiences that leave a lasting impression. For me, Couchsurfing offers a unique way to meet locals and fellow travelers, share stories, and immerse myself in authentic experiences that go beyond typical tourism. Whether it's exchanging cultural insights, learning new perspectives, or just having fun exploring together, I value the friendships and memories that come from these interactions. I love hosting and being hosted, as it opens doors to spontaneous adventures, meaningful conversations, and a deeper understanding of the world around me.
Interests
I am deeply passionate about a variety of spiritual and metaphysical practices such as Astrology, Feng Shui, Vastu, Tantra, Dowsing, Tarot Reading, Numerology, Past Life Regression, Kundli-Horoscope interpretation, and Palmistry. My interests extend to advanced yogic disciplines like Kundalini Yoga, Kriya Yoga, and Hatha Yoga, as well as Geomancy, Vipassana Meditation, Left Hand practices, and Reiki Healing. Outside of spirituality, I enjoy traveling, exploring adventure sports, cooking, and hosting parties with friends. My hobbies include Numismatics, Philately, and investigating the unknown through ghost hunting and paranormal activity.

Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes to books, I have a deep fascination with ancient manuscripts and spiritual texts. I'm particularly drawn to works that delve into history, especially those that explore the esoteric realms of Tantra, Yoga, and spiritual traditions from various cultures. These writings offer a profound understanding of the human experience, uncovering the wisdom and practices that have shaped spiritual paths throughout history.
Movies that resonate with me often revolve around themes of self-discovery, historical journeys, and mystical elements. I appreciate films that challenge the mind and spirit, encouraging introspection and a deeper exploration of life's mysteries. Music, too, plays a vital role in my life. I find solace in sounds that evoke a sense of tranquility, whether through ancient chants, meditative rhythms, or traditional compositions that connect me to my spiritual journey.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of my best Couchsurfing experiences was when I stayed with a host I connected with through the Couchsurfing website. From the moment I arrived, the experience was more than just a place to sleep; it was about sharing stories, learning from different cultures, and building genuine connections. My host went out of their way to make me feel welcome, offering local tips and introducing me to other travelers. We spent evenings exchanging travel experiences and insights, which made the journey even more memorable. The Couchsurfing community truly transformed the way I travel, turning strangers into friends and providing a unique perspective on the places I visit.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a deep passion for sharing knowledge and skills across a variety of fields. My expertise lies in spiritual and metaphysical practices such as Astrology, Feng Shui, Vastu, Tantra, Dowsing, Tarot Reading, Numerology, Past Life Regression, and Kundli-Horoscope interpretation. I'm also well-versed in Palmistry, Kundalini Yoga, Kriya Yoga, and Hatha Yoga, alongside lesser-known practices like Geomancy, Vipassana Meditation, and Left Hand practices. These areas have provided me with unique insights into energy, healing, and self-discovery, which I love to teach to those interested in exploring their spiritual side. Additionally, I can share my experience in Reiki Healing and ghost hunting for those intrigued by the paranormal. I’m always eager to connect with like-minded individuals and exchange knowledge about these fascinating topics.
On the more technical side, I have skills in IT, film-making, website designing, and troubleshooting. I enjoy working with creative mediums like still photography and video production, especially when it comes to translating ideas into visual storytelling. Whether it’s guiding someone through the intricacies of filmmaking or resolving website issues, I find fulfillment in helping others learn and grow in these areas.
Outside of technology and spiritual practices, I also have a love for cooking and meditation. I believe that cooking is a form of creative expression, and I enjoy sharing meals that bring people together. Meditation is another practice that I hold dear, offering me peace and balance. Whether it's teaching meditation techniques or cooking a new dish, I’m always excited to share what I know with others and learn from their experiences as well.
What I Can Share with Hosts
When Couchsurfing, I believe in creating a meaningful exchange by sharing whatever I can with my hosts. Whether it’s knowledge, skills, or just good conversation, I aim to contribute in any way that enriches the experience for both of us. From my background in spiritual and metaphysical practices like Astrology, Feng Shui, Vastu, Tantra, and Tarot Reading, I can offer insights that help uncover new perspectives on life, energy, and personal growth. If my host is interested in learning about Numerology, Past Life Regression, or Kundli-Horoscope reading, I would be happy to share those as well.
Additionally, I can guide hosts through practices like Kundalini Yoga, Kriya Yoga, and meditation techniques that promote mental clarity and inner peace. If they’re intrigued by the paranormal, I can also share my experiences with ghost hunting and other mystical phenomena. Beyond spiritual discussions, I’m always ready to dive into topics like film-making, website troubleshooting, or still photography—whether for casual learning or to help with a specific project.
Of course, I love to share a good home-cooked meal! Cooking is another passion of mine, and I enjoy preparing food that brings people together. Whether it's sharing my knowledge, a new skill, or simply some quality time, I always offer everything I have to make the Couchsurfing experience enjoyable and memorable for my hosts.
