About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find my vocation, through delving in different fields; Physics, Optics and Mathematics. I like to meet new people, read short stories, do long distance cycling, travel, play football(aka soccer), write, and study cultures. I guess I'll end up working for the education sector of my country.

ABOUT ME

(Haiku)
struck hard
fell hard
But grew harder
I love nature, truth, and the diversity and ideas of people. I'm a good listener, I'd listen to your love, your life, your sorrow and mirths. I'll carve myself into your bubble, and show you my own.

PHILOSOPHY

Take risks, go out of your comfort zone, embrace failure, and you'll be amazed at what you become; all to find your purpose and to give meaning to your life
I'm in love with the non-linear, and indeterminstic behaviour of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Till now I haven't had a host. But I guess when I have a place of my own I'll definitely allocate some resources for couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed at a mosque in a trek through the mountains.The hospitility came totally unexpected and it was an amazing experience. I hope that this attitude pervades around the globe and at my own home too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled 100km with a friend. Came back home and told me mum. She became breathless for a moment. Then came back to reality. Now she has freed her bird, and allowed me to travel.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know Maths, Physics, and Electronics. I'd teach your tongue into Urdu and Arabic. You could get practical tips on Football, Swimming, Horse back riding and Fifa 14 from me. Plus, you'll get to experience Pakistan first-hand, I hope my experiences will cheer you up. Even if you get nothing else, I'll make you some Pakistani tea.(though I suck at cooking)
