About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world and also making new friends. I think a stranger is simply a friend you don't know because all people are strangers at their first meeting before becoming friends.

ABOUT ME

I am an open-minded and quite interested in and curious about foreign countries and their cultures. I am an optimist and love to have fun and enjoy every moment of life.
A proactive, many-sided person who likes to experience new things. I am also a good cook (Indian curries, nan but only vegetarian)...I think it's enough otherwise it will be a self-praise which is not good for health.;). You will know me when you meet me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and Let others live..Love to make new friends and be a good friend.....What goes around comes around....Respect others and people will respect you (But Respect should be earned, it shouldn't be governed)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking for happiness and trying to make others happy. Trusting people is something that I believe makes couch surfing better, this is why we all are here.

PS:
People should not forget writing reference when they are requesting couch.
Please do not give the couch request at the eleventh hour.
Please do not change your plan frequently. It kills the chance of other genuine couch surfers

Interests

Travel to meet different people and get to know cultures. Want to work for the upliftment and betterment of society. Fond of music which is not confined to any particular, i.e. from Indian to Western music. Besides of my musical side I am also pretty interested in learning different culture and politics. Community activities, because I love to be surrounded by people and friends.
I love to try new things to extend my mind and opinion.
I hope to learn from different travelers.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Life is Beautiful,A Beautiful Mind, A Walk to Remember, Sweet November, A moment to Remember, 3 Idiots, Shawshank Redemption,The Irony of Fate or Enjoy the Bath, Taare Zameen Par, Saving Private Ryan, and more...
Music: All types depend on my mood..from Indian to Western...(I am fan of Yanni)
Books: A long list. Western authors and Asian authors... Books are opening my eyes but at the same time questioning whom to rely on as both have their own agendas. And false information can also become true knowledge.

Taj Mahal, Experiencing the White Night of Saint-Petersburg
