***!!!Important!!!***

I live in Kochi, India and Berlin Germany, depending on the time of year.

Like most of us I have this sickness called travelling. I got it unintentionally when my parents put me on a plane to California when I was 16 to stay with a family of my dad's friend. Things were different forever after. After that I became a passionate traveller and curious about people, their ideas and how they see the world.

Btw, I am straight, but LGBT community is welcome.

From April to July 2016 I was travelling in Russia, it was the 59th country that I have seen and I was fascinated by it. The people might be a little rough on the outside but they are real friends when you get to know them. I already had so many good experience here and I hope to see some of my new Russians friends come to Berlin. My next trip will be somewhere in the Arab region, inshallah.

Update1:

I just returned from a trip to Jordan which was an interesting experience. I will probably be in Berlin or the country side around it most of the time this summer so contact me if you need a place.

Update 2:

Summer is over and I am travelling through Europe to Turkey, will be back in Berlin at the beginning of 2018

Update 3:
The way to Turkey, Turkey itself and the Kurdish part was a wonderful trip and full of good encounters and experiences, thank you all who I had the chance to meet. Now it is March 2018 and a long planned trip to Algeria is finally taking shape. The idea was first born when i met a young French lady with Algerian roots in Jordan in spring 2017 who was full of praise for this country so i decided to give it a visit. Hope to meet you there!

Update 4 (end of April, 2018):

Just returned from a month in Algeria. What a great country and great people. Couchsurfing was never better than here, great hospitality and friendship. Ask me if you plan to go.

Update 5 (2024):

I lived in Kochi Kerala, India in 2022 for 6 months but have returned to Germany.
