What is the story you're operating from? What are the stories you hear from others about others? How easily one could create biases, and how easily could one be influenced, in whatever way they can be influenced? What is possible if we can arrive to a space of nothing and re-check those biases?

Everyone has a story to tell, about themselves, about others, about the world. Though, we must get better at distinguishing facts from opinions.

Update (October 4, 2023):: Open to hosting again as and when my schedule is open. Life is going in the direction of not putting all the eggs in one basket, that's what one must do I guess.

~~~~~

Update (April 27, 2018):: Going on a break from hosting for some time to sort out certain stuff in life that requires my utmost attention. Hit me up if you want to have a conversation, jam, play along with Jerry (The Dog), or cook some food together.

~~~~~

Update (April 8, 2018):: Things are almost in order at the new crib. Some electric, carpentry and plumbing are pending here and there. Jerry (The Dog) is as chill as ever. The kitchen is equipped for some awesome cooking and chilling. Also, I'm flying north home till the 21st of April, so won't be hosting during that time. See you soon!

~~~~~

Update (March 15, 2018):: Got a sweet little place with enough space. Everything is a mess right now and boxes are lying all over. If you would not mind that and my dog Jerry. The door is open for you.

~~~~~

Update (February 26, 2018):: In the process of moving to a new place here. Will start hosting again soon.

(Probably the best way to reach out to me in case you're sending in a request to be hosted or if you'd like to meet up. I don't always get notifications from the Couchsurfing app, also a contribution from my phone that's getting old, strangely in 3 years already, pfft, they don't make them as durable as before, do they?)
