ABOUT ME

I have travelled to 41 countries so far.

My friends say I have a dry/sarcastic, (sometimes mean) sense of humor, and I'm fun to be around with. I would categorize myself in the "friendly" category though I take a bit of time initially to open up and get comfortable.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and Let Live

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a proud old-timer here on Couchsurfing, since 2011, before the site became comparatively slick and before most people knew what CS was.

I have surfed with a number of fellow CS'rs in USA and Europe. I have also met up with several of them during my trips over the years. We have gone together for city tours, out of city tours, meals and parties together.

I was also lucky enough to join CS parties in Barcelona & Lisbon, when fellow CS'ers took me along.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I experienced couchsurfing for the first time during my trips to Europe & US in 2011/12. Staying & interacting with friendly locals & getting to know them was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life & i thoroughly appreciate it. I have also been regular user of airbnb properties worldwide, along with hostels.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I sky dived in Prague few years back, so that was something amazing. Literally.

and not to forget visiting the Airbus factory in Hamburg was a geeky dream come true.

Being a pro-wrestling fan, attending WrestleMania 33 live in Orlando was terrific.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I would love to learn about cultures and experiences of other people all around the world. I have been to quite a few countries & its always interesting to share, learn & enjoy each other's experiences. We live in a small world & its best to enjoy it together.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Friendly banter and lots of travel stories. I try to be at my best behavior when I'm traveling, as I see myself as one of the many ambassadors for Indians and travelers :)
