CURRENT MISSION * Do more through of my charitable organization, Annemarie Foundation, to help those in need. * Become a good story teller ABOUT ME Please visit www.annemariefoundation.org I love nature and every form of life: humans, animals, fish and plants. I love to listen, if you have a story to tell. I love to travel. I am an everyday man and I carry maths, science, passion, love and poetry in my heart. I believe in beautiful stories: If you love "Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus", there is something we love in common. PHILOSOPHY I believe that there is an angel in every human being; probably in every form of life. I live to love, to help, to feel, to learn; to enjoy, to work (to do my duty)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I can be a good host. To make good friends. I can join a nice travel/charity program. I can sponsor small amounts for something I find beautiful. I am a writer, but not a famous one; I value the experience I get from the surfers. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I joined CS on 21st Jun 2014; so far, so good.
Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: I like "Forrest Gump", "The Book Thief", "As good as it gets" etc Music: These days I like to hear Katy Perry, One Direction, etc; also Sanskrit Keerthanams and Bhajans Books: Classics, Fiction, autobiographies.. Some of my favorites are "The Alchemist", "The Little Prince", "Sidhartha", "Crime and Punishment" and Sonnets (from Shakespeare)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
*In 2015, I did 'Camino de Santiago' - the pilgrimage that took an 800 kilometer walk from St Jean Pied de Port (in France) to Santiago de Compostella (in Spain). * I have seen the delivery of my cow and carried the baby to its mom. * I planted some 4000 trees(many extinguished) from 200 plus species and built a little private forest. *I made a large pond for the tiny villages fishes (who are almost extinct because of pesticides) of my village. *I write love letters to the woman I treat as my angel *I have travelled to more than 300 churches in many countries and more than 30 temples in last three years. *I published two (fiction) books: "The Mango Tree" and "A Thief, An Angel and Some Butterflies". *I have floated thousand lanterns in Rishikesh, in the Holy Ganges river.
