Couch Information
Couch Available: Yes
Preferred Gender: Any
Max Surfers Per Night: 2
Shared Sleeping Surface: No
Shared Room: NoDepends on whether we meet in India or the Netherlands!
In Anand, Gujarat, you will have your own room / share it with other CSers.
In Delft, we will probably have to find place on the floor for a mattress in my student house. **UPDATE**
I have been back in India for a while and have decided to host again here in Anand. I have a large-ish place with extra rooms for travelers. Anand is not really on the tourist map but its not too far from two big cities in Gujarat - Vadodara (~35 Kms) and Ahmedabad (~60 Kms).
**********
Delft, the Netherlands: Almost always happy to meet travellers for a coffee/drink and to show them around. Couch Availability limited since I'm in a student house. Friends (165)

What do these numbers mean?
This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.
In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.
When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you. References (64)60Positive 4Neutral 0Negative

 From Puneet Sahani Berlin, Germany
Sep 21, 2009  Positive Shilp is rad bloke from all angles - balanced, educated, traveled, sensible, witty, (uglier than me), (shorter hair than me) etc... Jokes apart a very welcome, warm, and contributing presence. Please excuse his grumpiness for he has a baby elephant in his stomach; though species of his kind have the longest gestation period, it does end eventually!
 From Ashutosh Mehta New Delhi, India
Sep 7, 2009 Positive Thanks Shilp for organising such a wonderful CS meet last week. Never thought you can gather such a large gathering in the middle of a week! Since I am new to CS, it was a great chance for me to meet so many CS face to face. My wishes got fulfilled :)
