ABOUT ME

I am talkative, fickle, opinionated and to a lesser extent judgmental. I am well informed about most topics and curious about everything.

I live in Amsterdam now for about a year now.

PHILOSOPHY

There are a lot of people on this planet, if i do the same thing as everyone else, wont i just become a statistic.?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I became active on Couchsurfing in 2012 and started going to the various events in Pune. Since then I have surfed at and hosted a couple of people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed at Raj Mehraj's house in Jaipur and Yogendra's hotel in Jaisalmer. In Pune, I have hosted two surfers - Martin and Jacqui.

Interests

I spend a lot of the time on the internet(occupational hazard). I like programming, there is a simple truth to it and every time I do it I am reminded of Geoffrey Chaucer's quote "Life is so short, and the craft takes so long to learn". I absolutely love reading and watching movies. I have watched English French, German, Lebanese , Spanish movies and I have got to say, nothing holds my attention like german movies.
