First word - I have been a CS member since 2016 and was actively involved in hosting travelers from various parts of the world at my home in Mangalore where i am currently living. Recently, i had a trouble with logging in to my account which was blocked for no reason that I could see, and it remained so for more than a month.
I am forced to create a new account as i am afraid that the original account may not be retrieved at all and especially because i have plans to travel in the recent future and i intend to travel using CS this time for the amazing experiences i look forward to.

Now, About me:

I am from a small town in the Southern part of India. A mechanical engineer by qualification, i took up my current job after my graduation. Working with a national Oil company, Music and travel are my passion.
I try to visit new places whenever possible, it gives me happiness.
I like to make adventure travel trips, basically a solo traveler but wouldn't mind travelling with like-minded co-travelers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is an amazing way of meeting people.
It gives me the pleasure of getting to help strangers, teaching them what I know and learning new things from them and becoming a reason for people’s smile. And of course, I’m a traveller too and I’d always love to stay with people who would like to offer me a stay and exchange our cultures and travel experiences.

I believe it is one of the best things that’s ever happened to me.
