Most importantly, I live in Dehradun and not Rishikesh. Rishikesh is 30 kms from my place. So if you are looking for host in Rishikesh, don't request me. I am tired of rejecting surfers looking for host in Rishikesh. If you are interested in exploring Dehradun, happy to host if I am available.

Hi, I'm Pankaj and I love to explore, meet people and experience life in different way (more like adventure).
I love riding motorbikes and hiking, so if you are around Dehradun, Rishikesh or nearby, do hit me up. I'm open to hanging out if available.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too much to list. Well in music I listen to everything but I hate copied and remix stuff. In books I love classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sun rise at snow capped mountain in Himalayas during my Amarnath trip.
Bike ride in pitch dark heavy rainfall at Gangotri, temperature dropped from 20 degree centigrade to 1. The rain water on jackets and gloves were iced.
Cave adventures at Vietnam.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a bit about Hydroponics, Aquaponics - currently working on them. Maths, was kinda good that subject XD.
I love to learn about food, recipes, culture, a bit of history and geography. I am an explorer by heart.
I am willing to share my travel experience, trekking routes I know, motorcycle loops and can recommend some cafes and street food point.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A simple nice hang out. No wifi or ac, just a warm cozy atmosphere. Also a bachelor's place a little bit messed up, so please understand. And my travel experiences, which is a gem.

Staying with me there are certain house rules.
1. No smoking inside rooms, you can smoke outside at the balcony or rooftop.
2. Bring your own alcohol. In case you have no clue about Indian brand I can give you an idea ;)
3. No over drinking or boozing. It's a mess handling the aftermath 😅.
4. No drugs and loud music. I do love heavy metals but definitely won't like my neighbors complaining.
5. Treat the place with respect not as a hotel room.
6. I will check your ID or passport (for security reasons) and will require your emergency contact.
7. If you are coming more than the number of people you mentioned, then do mention the correct number. I will cancel request in false number cases. Secondly the accompanying person should have a Couch Surfing profile.
