I was born in Pakistan, raised in Saudi Arabia, educated, worked and started my first business in Houston, and then the success and strategic HR nature of my business allowed me to leave my job. Since I had always wanted to grow further and travel, I decided to move to Germany to pursue an MBA at the Mannheim Business School, and enrolled in exchange semesters in France and Singapore. All this while, I continued my business on the side, and travelled to new countries every now and then.

I'm well informed, well travelled and easy to get along with. I don't drink or smoke, and go vegetarian whenever I can. I think its best that I'm described not in my words, but in the words of people whom I've stayed with, so here's the link to my airbnb profile:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always been an airbnb guy, but I'd like to give this a try now that I'm just finishing up on being an MBA student for a year. This way, I can still meet new people, discover new places, and save some $ in the process.
