Overview
About Me
Well, I'm definitely a guy - says so in my profile and you can see for yourself in my photos. :) I was born in Dhaka, Bangladesh but I grew up in the United States. I identify more with being an American than Bangladeshi, yet I've been living here for a long time now because I'm waiting for my Green Card to return to my family there. (We prefer to do things legally in my family.) :) I am still very new to the Couchsurfing community and haven't decided yet what I want to write here. I've kinda made up for it though with all the pictures I've uploaded, let them do all the talking. :) But I am blessed to already have had guests stay with me and write very nice references, especially the 2 ladies. So I must say that I take pride in myself for being completely safe for everyone of any gender, creed, or sexual orientation as I believe the spirit of Couchsurfing dictates. And I add that I am not one of those who are misusing this site for financial benefit. I have even spent extra money from my own pockets to make my guests' trips as fulfilling, comfortable, and pleasant as possible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Other than imparting knowledge to a room full of eager students, the amazing thing I've done is my public performances. Three years ago, I realized my dream of acting by acting in a professionally produced play in front of a real audience without having any prior acting experience whatsoever - not even in school as a kid. Till date, I have acted in six performances of the same play.
More recently, I have performed Spoken Word of my own original material during two open-mics.
Teach, Learn, Share
Change is the only constant.
Better safe than sorry.
