About Me

Born and bread in Mount Lavinia, Sri Lanka I took a liking to arts music drama and sports. I represented my high school in rugby, soccer, rifle shooting, karate. I am passionate about Christ and building His Kingdom.

Spent 3 years away from Sri Lanka studying Finance and Marketing at Deakin University, Melbourne Australia where I also played a lot of rugby.

I have been working in Property Developing and Hospitality for over 9years

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My work requires me to travel to different parts of Sri Lanka. So I shuffle between colombo and Nuwara Eliya although I find my self in Nuwara Eliya more than Colombo. I live in a rather large 3 bedroom house and it's always nice to have some company. What better way than through Couch surfing?

Interests

I play Guitar, Rugby, SMILE Sri Lanka (look it up on Facebook), drums, business

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam accross the Murray Darling River from New South Wales to Victoria, Australia. 350 mtrs of freezing water and strong currents with zero possibilities of getting rescued! Nearly died!

Organised a Childrens Carnival that facilitated almost 3000 orphans and street kids. Started this foundation called SMILE Sri Lanka.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A comfortable room, hot water, and what ever I eat or drink. I used to be in the hospitality trade. So I am glad to give surfers tips on their Sri Lankan adventure.
