Out to make travel buddies and memories. Hey there, I’ve lived in California for the last 14 years and 12 years in San Francisco Bay Area. I am a widely travelled, adventurous and spontaneous kind of person. I enjoy impromptu getaways as much as a well planned exploration off the beaten path. When visiting a new place I spend my time to experience the unique landmarks, natural splendor, food, nightlife and to connect with local people as well as worldwide travelers. I appreciate deep conversations about cultures, traditions, philosophy, history, the local economy and the unwritten attributes of a place. I work in technology which makes me curious about the penetration of technology in each location. I am a geek by the day and jock by the night. I enjoy relaxing at a restaurant lounge followed by exploring the nightlife. I am a person that enjoys both museums and dance clubs, deep conversations and raucous drunk rambling, busy travel itineraries and a slow relaxed vacation. I like connecting with all kinds of people and am easy to get along with. I like driving and showing people around town. So if you are around me, then let’s make some friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy showing my friends around when they visit. It’s always nice to see them have a good time and amuse about something they’ve seen for the first time. I figured why not do the same with people I don’t know, yet. Make new friends, know new cultures, become aware of fresh perspectives and learn new ways of having fun!
I also travel a lot. So I’d like to meet other people like me when I travel who enjoy meeting new people and making friends across geographies and cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a 90’s kid so 90’s Pop music gets me grooving anytime any day. I also like Classic Rock, Metallic Rock, Electronic Rock and Electronic trans music.
Being an immigrant myself I have been exposed to music from many different countries. Indian dance music and melodies are my favorites. But I enjoy music from many other countries as well.
I am a huge movie and tv series buff. Regardless of the language, I enjoy intense dramas, action, historical, action, military and war, Sci-fi, mind bending stories and of course comedy. My all time favorite is by far Breaking Bad. An offbeat movie I would highly recommend is The Man from the Earth.
I used to read a lot of fiction at one point of my life. But now I enjoy more non-fiction. Biographies, philosophy, management and self-development books.
