born and raised in Pakistan, who somehow grew a wanderlust somewhere between the business travels. And when i went to US for the first time to do a west coast road trip, it just changed how i thought about travelling, since that day i am always planning something about traveling in my mind.

I hold a Masters degree in Business Studies and have taken up 3 entrepreneurial ventures between 2010 - 2017 all of them are being successfully operated. (more details when we get to meet, if it gets to that point)

Recently, decided to quit working to take travelling as the profession. Through these travel i intend to cater to my wanderlust and create content that could help and aspire travelers in future.

I am an easy going person and i respect people for who they truly are. True believer of CO-EXISTENCE.

I am slightly geeky when it comes to gadgets, I don’t know about everything in the market, but I do thorough research through internet (YouTube mostly) whenever I like something or plan to buy any new thing. Spend a lot of time watching reviews of different gadgets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing for a while now but i was never able to host or surf on my previous travels but now I want to be able to meet people easily, my project requires me to meet people from all backgrounds and all cultures, this way i can interact with them and share their stories for the fellow travellers. And obviously learn from their experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
it depends on the mood, i am a person who might have listened to the popular music but might not be able to name the artist or the DJ. i do know a few though :p, soulful music pulls me like anything.

Movies:
I think "Lord of the Ring" movies are the pinnacle of film making.
I am also a fan of Star Wars, Marvel and DC movies, Bond movies, Harry Potter.
I watch Bollywood movies as well. RHTDM is my favourite bollywood movie.

Books:
i used to read books when i was younger but somewhere in growing up i drifted away from the charm of turning the pages and experiencing the world from the authors pen, but i am working on reviving this habit.
LOTR trilogy is an amazing book nevertheless.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time i got out of my country was when i was 25. And that too for living in a competely new place (Indonesia) alone. I lived there alone for 2.5 years and it was an eye opener, especially for a boy who has lived his life with a very protective and caring family. I think that was the most amazing thing i have done.

I know it says "one" amazing things but i feel like the following 2 things deserve to be here as well. "Disclaimer" : i know how to read the heading, i am just taking some liberty to overdo a little here.

Secondly, going down in the water with cylinder at your back and experience another life system, was mesmerising.

And now quitting the business and taking up a new career. I hope it turns out well.
