Trying to find gold that doesn't glitter.

I am an extremely down to earth person. Did my research in artificial intelligence and I currently work as a software engineer at a not for profit organisation. I can help setting up your website or web application or help you with it if needed and time permits.

I like to travel a lot and spend a lot of time visiting different places in detail rather than just the tourist attractions. I've traveled a decent portion of Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan and Canada.

I currently am in the midst of planning the next few years of my life. The last 12 year plan ended in December and I like to think it helped others too. I don't know what to do now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I prefer to meet new people when I travel. I don't like fancy hotels, I think they are depressing as you don't talk to new people, share experience etc. Even though I'm new to couch surfing, I seem to generally attract people who want to talk to me. Apart from that, I also think hotels are expensive and not worth the money for just sleeping. I've been known to sleep in parks or near beaches to avoid that. I would also want to help others similarly.

Interests

I like bush walk or hike and be close to nature on trips. Then in the cities I would also like to do all that the city has to offer. Basically if it is good company I would be happy anywhere.
