Just having graduated from business school (INSEAD - France, Singapore), I am working on my start-up ideas while exploring other professional opportunities (Read: job hunting).

Over the last few months, I have kept myself busy teaching 'Indian vegetarian cooking' and coaching CFA / CMA candidates.

I try to keep active by playing cricket, tennis or basketball poorly.

I'm a dangerous man with some money in my pocket. Especially if we're out partying and you have a morning commitment the next day.

I'm originally from Bombay, but have lived in Muscat, Dallas, Houston, Kuwait, Fontainebleau, Singapore, Abu Dhabi and Luxembourg.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I originally got on couch surfing to host people. I found it to be a great way to meet people. But then, life happened and now I'm the nomad looking for couches to crash on.

Interests

I have recently started exploring Anime. I wanted to find out why people love / hate it so much.

I've read the game of thrones books / watched all 5 seasons and cant wait for the next book / season. I might start reading Wheel of time in the meantime.

I like the notion of being fit, exercising regularly but my procrastination / laziness usually wins. I've found that group activity (team sports) usually helps.

I love traveling, especially when I have some money to spend.

• reading
• socializing
• music
• cycling
• basketball
• cricket
• tourism

Music, Movies, and Books

I love exploring new music, movies and ideas. Lets discuss our likes over a drink or 4 :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Canyon swinging in Nepal.

I'm scared of heights, roller coasters and the like. But the presence of a pretty air hostess in our travel group goaded me into this once in a lifetime experience. (Once in a lifetime because I'm not doing it again)

More on this in person.
