Grew up in Nepal before moving stateside for college close to 8 years back. Lived in the east coast, Texas, mid west and now in the Pacific North West for quite a while now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People fascinate me. People and their life experiences. Any background that shaped who they are, obscure experiences that had a lasting impact on them and I am all ears. Work schedules mean I do not get to travel as much as I want. However, I can still meet diverse people and, in a sense, get to travel through their experiences. In a way, I might just be trying to reminisce my childhood. My parents owned a BnB while growing up and my childhood was filled with story-time from backpackers from Israel, thrill seekers from Denmark and hippies from all around. I basically want to travel through tales right now and hopefully make a few friends along the way. Planning to host only right now, but will eventually start surfing.

Interests

Sports. All form of sports. Live music. Music festivals. Obscure card and drinking games. I try my hand at billiards once in a while. Good beer. Good food. Outdoor activities including hiking and cycling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Glitch hop, space bass, UK garage. Techno and house. Also grew up on 70s and 80s rock and 90s gangster rap.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Right after high school, I went on a half month trek of Annapurna region in Nepal. Basically, started south of the Himalayas and went to the north to the mystical land of Mustang. Have not done anything amazing in the last few years but plan to change that ASAP.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will teach you drinking games, lots and lots of them. I, somehow, have the ability to turn any and everything into a drinking game. Can teach you the few Nepali dishes I know how to cook.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook a few things (good/bad part, I'll let others judge). Teach you a bunch of American drinking games. And I have been told I am funny sometimes. So, a few moments of laughter too, whether it be by laughing at me or with me :)
