Overview
About Me
I like to be identified as a white collar hippie! Currently, I work as a professor at a design and business school at a university in Mumbai.
I like to have conversations about sustainability, world politics, sharing economy, history , art , literature and even technology!
I teach design thinking, creative entrepreneurship and am passionate about student startups!
My alter ego is of a musician and I love playing the flamenco guitar and also enjoy reading short stories.
I think I am fairly easy going, super relaxed and open minded guy.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I discovered my passion to travel a couple of years back, and since then I have been travelling all around my country.
My latest adventure was in East Europe where the people were so warm and welcoming!
I found out that I am pretty much like them! And this platform is great to search like minded people and fulfill each others dream to travel!
