Until the age of 10, I grew in my village (farm house) and then lived in Bangalore and also in the UK for 6 years. I worked in the IT industry for over 12 years, gave up all that to re-connect with my grass roots to become a farmer. Now, Me and family shuttle between our farm house (coffee plantation) and our home in Bangalore City.

I have extra rooms in my farm house (near Sakleshpur) which I am happy let travelers use while also learn how we grow coffee, the popular Indian traditional way of Shade grown coffee. I would loved to spread a good word on coffee.

I love to travel meet and understand culture of the place I travel to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Me and my wife love to meet and make new friends while we travel. While we meet people when we host, we would love meet the locals to understand the local culture while we travel.
