Overview
About Me
A writer by passion, a journalist by profession.
I like to dream and put them down on paper. All eyes and ears for something new. Let the experience overwhelm me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have been exploring places for a while now especially on my bike. The last two years has seen me take long rides to some of the most wonderful places.
However, one thing that truly hits me is the lack of feel of that place when you stay at a hotel. A line from the film 'The Beach' hits my head time and again. I don't remember the exact words but it was how we, would go out in search for homely comforts even when they look to go away from the familiar surrounding.
More than anything I would rather be a traveler than a tourist.
“Tourists went on holidays while travellers did something else. They travelled.”

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I quit my job as an Engineer after two in the field as it was not my cup of tea. I hope I can make it big in writing and film making. So hey! Cheers to that!
