CURRENT MISSION

#1 item on my bucket list: Travel every country in the world.

ABOUT ME

Just a happy go lucky Indian/Canadian who loves to laugh, enjoys being pushed out of his comfort zone, always keen to explore new places and meet wonderful people. I'm a jack of all trades but skilled at none. Got various interests ranging from alternative music to DIY projects to suiting up.
I'm always prepared for questions. If you've got some, please ask.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lots.
Driving on Highway 1 in Canada is amazing. The majestic mountains, green trees, clear rivers, sunshine in summer and snow in winter - all make a thing as simple as driving - spectacular.
Rode on the tube in London, England during the Olympics!
Camped in the Big 5 territory in Okavango Delta, Botswana. There were no fences, nothing. Elephants, hyenas, lions - all came by our tent.
Visited a rat temple in Bikaner, India.
Saw Pride Parade in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Sandboarded in Swakopmund, Namibia.
Partied at a railway station in Maputo, Mozambique.
Pondered sitting on the edge of the southern-most tip of African continent in Cape Town, South Africa.
Sang karaoke in 3 languages in Chandigarh, India.
Partied in Bangkok, Thailand in between flights (only had 14 hours to spare).
Saw the most beautiful beaches in Perth, Australia.
Visited a lil' town named North Pole in Alaska where Christmas is 24/7 a year.
