About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Save enough money to keep travelling every year...that includes less shopping and getting people to donate to the 'Help Minella' fund

ABOUT ME

Difficult to pen down thoughts about myself...am a fun loving person who believes in live and let live... Am generally labelled as an open book - what you see is what you get - not too layered :)

Yes and like a lot of my well wishers have to say about me - good things come in small packages :)By the way a lot of people think I am quite tiny and am hence nicknamed mini...but i'd like to label myself 'fun size'
Am more of an energizer bunny with a battery that rarely dies :)

PHILOSOPHY

Some say the glass is half empty..some say the glass is half full...I'm saying - whose drinking the damn drink?

Word of caution - Serious discussions bring out the GARFIELD in me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Am currently new to CS, but have been travelling for the past 3 years.Decided to explore this portal and connect with travelers across the globe...
Currently can't host a couch, but yea am definitely up for catching up and showing the city around to travelers

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Dont have an opportunity to host anyone currently, but met some wonderful people both in India and abroad on my travels
Had the opportunity to interact and hang out with travelers, plan their further itinerary

Interests

Love travelling - ofcourse why would i be here in the first place
Entertaining people - I can talk and talk and talk
Partying - I do have 'two feet left'when it comes to dancing...but couple of energising drinks and its party time:)
Sleeping - Am Garfields twin and I hate monday's
