Hey there, I'm Tejas. I'm an avid nature enthusiast and a sucker for a good adventure, always chasing all things weird, unusual and crazy; things that make for a great story. I believe that the best experiences in life are the ones that are unplanned and spontaneous.

Needless to say, I'm very open-minded and curious. I usually quench my thirst for curiosity by asking a lot of questions; by trying to understand why things are the way they are. So be prepared to be bombarded with questions, as I would love to know your life story as well!

I love comedy. Laughter is like therapy for me and my go-to activity to make myself feel good. I would describe myself as being fun and laid-back, but I also have an introspective side and love to connect with people over talks on the meaning of life, love, the human mind, philosophy, or any current topics, from artificial intelligence to geopolitics, political correctness and wokeism.

If you are looking to be hosted, send me a message and I'll be happy to share the details. I'm very selective on who I choose to host and would appreciate personalized requests. Please consider reading my profile completely and mentioning anything that interests you or things we may have in common.
