About Me
Engineering graduate now turned into a small business owner. I manage Live Free Hostel, a backpacker hostel chain based in Rishikesh, Varanasi and Mcleodganj. I am a great host and a backpacker from heart. Rishikesh has been my home since 2016. I have good management skills and also am very handy with tools.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
