About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel all countries on my wish-list and host!

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurous, friendly and honest. I love to get to know people in local areas, get to feel a place if I am visiting. I believe home is where the heart is, and so wherever my heart is, I feel is my home, and like to treat it that way and with respect.

PHILOSOPHY

Die before dying (a sufi phrase, meaning that once you come to accpet death in life only then you can fully enjoy life without the threat of death).

Be happy, live a happy life, full of value and appreciation of each day and share as many amazing experiences as I possible :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, I love music and when I get a chance to watch movies I generally enjoy them :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched meteors falling in the pitch darkness of the Erg Chebbi Desert in Morocco, watching satellites circle the earth on a Berber camp. Drinking tea with Kashmiri militants, playing volleyball with the Indian Army. Jumped out of a plane for charity. Climbing up and down 12,000ft snowy peak in one day in trainers, and not being able to walk the next. Nearly losing my head from sitting on top of a bus and just missing some electric cables! Swimming in glowing plankton in the sea at Goa (Sea sparkle). The birth of my daughter, sunrise at any morning is always glorious, many many things including the reality of meditation, what it can bring, the realisation of maya and connection to the almighty.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages and cooking! I welcome anyone who can teach me any language, about their home country and who can show me how to cook one of their national dishes :) I love to hear about personal spiritual philosophy and experience.
