Update 2022 - I had been offline for a good couple of years, not an accidental coincidence with the time the pandemic was rife, I must say. Now I am slowly getting back to traveling and meeting new CS-ers.

I love traveling and wish to gather as many experiences as I can. I recently moved to Amsterdam from India, and am still in the early stages of exploring the beautiful cities in Europe. I wish to see them all :)

My passions are football and music, and I am just as comfortable hanging out in cozy little bars in the city as I am attending events and concerts. I also love to try out interesting new cuisines local to specific cities.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Here to meet new people and make friends all over the world; the world is as small a place as we wish for it to be, afterall :) Couchsurfing is the way the world should have gone a long time back in my opinion, and it is a shame that i only discovered it recently. However, having stumbled upon CS, I wish to make the most of it, and earn as many diverse and unique life experiences as I can.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Music - too much to list, as this is my biggest passion. I have learned Indian classical singing and still spend time trying to make music while fighting my genre crisis, because i like almost all kinds of music.
Right from the psychedelic 60-70s (Pink Floyd, Led Zep, The Beatles, The Doors...)
Moving to 80s (Metallica, GNR,) the 90s (RHCP, Nirvana) and some alternative bands like Oasis, R.E.M etc...
Electronic - Deephouse, techno, trance, melodic techno, mostly artists like Artbat, Camelphat, Miss Monique, Indira Paganotto, Amelie Lens, Ki/Ki etc...
Some pop too mainly due to Michael Jackson :) I listen to a lot of Indian music, many languages, from the 70s and 80s. Well, like I said, too many to list.

Movies - Forest Gump, And Justice for all, Braveheart, Cinderella Man
A lot of Indian movies too :)

I am not a voracious reader, and generally read travel and jungle experiences by folks like Kenneth Anderson, Bill Bryson, Jim Corbett etc. I read a little bit of fiction....authors like Dan Brown, John Grisham. I read a lot of footballers' autobiographies.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Traveled to Brazil and Russia to watch two FIFA World Cups!
Lucky to have been to 4 continents, taken a dip in 3 oceans and seen 4 wonders of the world

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can exchange views on music from different parts of the world. I make music during my free time (as much as I can manage these days) and explore music a lot; I am trained in Indian classical singing; i would love to talk more about it and share and learn more.
I can tell you quite a lot about India, how to get around, the hidden gems, different cultures within the country, best time to travel and an honest and unbiased opinion about the country.
I love the jungles and can share some of my experiences living near them (I love watching animals in the wild)

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Good company
Cook an Indian dish.
Good conversations about general topics (I have been told that I am a good listener too)
Info on places to eat, drink etc. in cities I have been to :)
