CURRENT MISSION

Aww, i don't have a mission

ABOUT ME

I've been volunteering in India for the past 2 1/2 years. Given India's "interesting" visa regulations, I travel often - just returned from a few months in Switzerland - truly awesome! The current plan is another 7+ years in India.

PHILOSOPHY

I've been involved in helping others (some call this volunteering) for most of my life. The Boy Scouts have a good motto, Do A Good Turn Daily. I try for more than 1. You should try it, it's good for you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people from various forums, about 100 in the last couple of years. Since I couchsurfed in Locarno recently, thought I should sign up here. I have an interesting place in the middle of "real" India, and can show you some things most never get a chance to see.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Aww, I've done a bit, prefer hosting to staying.
