ABOUT ME

My name is Ravi.

I like to travel a lot and grad school has kept me busy for most of the last four years. Although I have known CS for some years now, I did not get a chance to either surf or host anyone. Now, that I have my own place and out of school, Im assuming Ill be active here in this community.

About Me ::
I have always dodged this question in most of the online web portals that ask to talk about yourself but I feel obligated to update this part here and update one liners.
I am a big sports enthusiast and am involved with lots of sports. Love to take lots of photographs and every once in a while try to reminisce in scanning through all my collection. I love taking challenges in a sportive way. I can never dance but every time I try I consider myself being the best of the lot ;)
Enjoy sunrises, sunsets and long rides. Love things I have around and try to make an effort to appreciate everything I have. I am lucky that I have loads of friends owing to my amiable nature to complete strangers (one aspect of mine I am proud of). When I find something new, I have the urge to explore every aspect of it. It has helped me in the past but mostly I end up spending lots of hours just to know stuff that might not even help me in any way (and I dont repent that).

PHILOSOPHY

Practices makes "anyone" perfect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately I have not been an active member till now but moving forward, even if I am not surfing or hosting anyone, I would like to be an active local participant of the community. I would love to catch up with local friends, fellow couch surfers over coffee, local trips and maybe help around someone new to the place.
