Overview
About Me
I'm a homo sapien🙊 who is aware that he's born out of stardust 🎆!
Aware that, all I can see🤓, hear🎶, touch🌵, smell🌷 and experience😍 is also ultimately made up of this same star 🌟 stuff. Well.. I'm talking about the Atoms☢️ forged in the interiors of stars ✨🌞 billions of years ago..!
I feel so much excited🤩, amazed🥳, crazy😝, thrilled😎 and humbled😇 all at the same time when I become aware of this startling fact!
Unfortunately this fact is known to very few people yet a universal truth.☺️
Life 🌱as we know it.. is another spectacular event that happened in some corner of the universe or perhaps on earth 🌎 itself.. and I'm really very lucky😇 to be a part of it.
You and me (reading this) are aware and form the conscious part of the Universe 🌌 wondering and trying to make sense about the Universe itself.
Don't you think that's wonderful🌈? If not...* Then... Think again.!!! 🤩
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I don't think we humans should be living like 'frogs in the well' despite being born in this vast and beautiful world 🌎 .
There's so much to see, experience and explore that.. unfortunately our lifetime's are not enough to go all places and meet all the good people in every corner of this tiny beautiful planet 🌏.
With Couchsurfing I'm open to new possibilities and free to delve deep into local communities, meet new people, make everlasting bonds and friendships, learn bits of new language, know different cultures, see different living spaces, and surroundings.
This experience is never possible with a planned trip, a guided tour or a hotel stay, no matter how luxurious or comfortable it be the case.
I only need a tiny space in a small corner of your living space to rest, get fresh and enjoy the beautiful places around your place, get time to interact with you, have fun and enjoy maximum at minimal comfort and facilities.
Interests
(caution ⚠ demands your valuable time... too much of writeup.. some might find it hard to follow up.. and I'm sorry if you're unable to read it all at once..I guess it will be worth it if we're fortunate to find a connection in life😂)
My interest lies in exploring the place we all live in.. Which is the universe 🌌!... ..in it.. The planet earth.. 🌏 our only home... The tiny pale blue dot 🌎 as Carl Sagan famously quoted for earth.. which resides in the spiral arm of the magnificent milky-way galaxy.. Which in itself is another speck in the grand scheme of things.
The curiosity to search for answers and find wonders of this place we live, will never ever come to an end. This no matter how much we discover.. We've always got more to find..
I often wonder what exactly I'm looking for in this life, but I believe that my interest lies in quality education and research areas in science and technology. These being the core fields that helped humanity to make impeccable progress in the past and perhaps continue the same way to the present and the future.
I would like to do things that will in some way improve or touch the lives of people, benefit this planet 🌏 and many of its inhabitants, the environment and everything living.
I would love to leave a mark of my own.. and try my best to not just fade away into nothingness in this vast and complex world 🗺 we live!

Music, Movies, and Books
As I'm born in India, I'm having a taste for a good genre of music, Classical, bollywood, Hollywood, regional languages and other popular YouTube artists.. most are melodies that sound pleasant to my ears. For example melodies from Taylor swift, Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Luis fonsi, Katty perry, Ellie Goulding, and French songs by Indila.. Her 'Derniere danse' is one of my favorites.
I read biographies of famous people who have changed the world or have made people to think differently or are making the world a better place for us to live.
I also read science and technology books related to astronomy, cosmology, basic science, physics and mathematics.
Reality inspired movies are my favorite though not a stranger to other genres of movies like science fiction, horror, suspense, crime and thrillers.
Love to watch beautiful, meaningful, funny yet thoughtful series and shows on Amazon prime video, Netflix, hotstar and others. Few of the recent ones I've watched and liked include Made in heaven, chernobyl, stranger things, dark, criminal justice etc.
Being of Indian origin, I love the spicy Indian foods and would therefore enjoy good spicy food from any corner of the world. Love Mediterranean style food too, but to forget my favorite veggies and fruits.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There are so many things that I feel were amazing with regards to the experiences in my life but at this moment I don't feel exactly what to put down here..
Maybe I'll surely add this space.. Later.. But, wait.....
One amazing thing I've seen is the beauty and wonder of the universe and in that our tiny little world in it.
There are absolutely no parallels to the wonders of the universe 🌌 and the incredibly complex yet beautiful life on earth that has ultimately evolved to become you and me 🌎.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to teach the young populace of the earth 🌎 who are the future of the world.. To make them aware about the beauty in scientific understanding rather than making it a monotonous affair of learning facts and figures.
Currently I work as a teacher/ freelancer teaching physics and mathematics while I'm also a self funded small level researcher.
I love to learn new things in life, like a new language, to speak to fresh faces I get to meet, learn a programming language to code better, a new software to work better, a video editing tool to master my editing skills, graphic design, arts, ponder on new concepts and techniques in science and technology, or even things like cooking, jogging, cycling, making so simple yet tasty food or activity under the earth that's meaningful and useful to me and/or others.
I'm also an active YouTuber running a channel that creates videos about products and services that matter to people in their daily life.
Anyone who shares the same wavelength or would like to strike a beautiful conversation to share their thoughts and ideas, knowledge and life experiences or wants work on anything meaningful and intellectually stimulating is always welcome 💐 and I would reciprocate the same in return.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I would be able to offer you a warm welcome to the place of my stay in 🇮🇳 Bangalore or kerala or wherever I can host at that moment in space-time.
I could help you with a shared space that's not very spacious but with limited comfort and basic/minimal amenities.
Perhaps be able to strike a good conversation and probably spend good times together, that should ideally forge a memory in us to last a lifetime!
Guide you to the places of mutual interests to the best of my knowledge and experiences.
Perhaps accompany you in case I'm free at that point in time.
Make you a hot cup coffee or tea with authentic local ingredients or maybe fresh juice or noodles, or a toast.
There's a lot more that I can offer depending on the situation and space-time were in.
