Overview
About Me
A bibliophile and coffee addict. I travel because it helps me rediscover myself. I like the new lessons that I get in every stage of my travel and that's the fuel that takes me to the next destination. At present I am trying to get into a phase of living on the road and so I haven't fixed a home anywhere. I believe in destiny and I believe I can find it while on the move, and that I will get stuck in the ways of the society if I don't get out early enough.
I believe everyone I meet on the road teaches me something, and so yes, I am looking forward to meet my great teachers.
And I hope during the course of my journey, I live up to the full meaning of these words:
'Thus let me live, unseen, unknown; Thus unlamented let me die; Steal from the world, and not a stone Tell where I lie."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I am looking to meet people, open myself to new experiences and also to save so that I can travel for a longer period..
Interests
I love reading like I breathe. I love touching books, smelling books and being with books. So you can basically find a ton of them wherever I stay. I learned yoga when I was 17 and have tried my hand at teaching too, but sticking to improving myself now. Writing for me means talking to myself. Most of my writings are reflections on myself and the world that surrounds me, or the world as I see it. I am a graduate and post graduate in Philosophy but more than that it has provided me answers to many of my questions and where it hasn't, it has given me some interesting questions.
