About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the states with a child-like sense of wonder and excitement!

ABOUT ME

Some of this, I'm sure you'll be able to gather from the picture itself, but I'm 29. Male. Single. I'm originally from southern India. Been living in the states for little over 7 years now. Studied in Nebraska of all places. Lived in LA for a bit. Now in SF for close to four years. I adore the city to my very core. I like to think I'd make a decent tour guide. Love coffee. Like commuting on my bike. Enjoy Good whiskey. Read a lot of news. Don't do beer. I'm a tolerably good cook. Live music is fun. I'm quiet to start, but not too bad if you know me.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to the site. I have yet to host anyone or park myself on anyone's couch. But I'm hoping to travel to Portland very shortly. And expect to be able to host people in February when my living situation stabilizes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at the moment.

Interests

It varies, but really into Dodgeball at the moment. Trying to get into Ultimate Frizbee. Little bit of Rock-climbing as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did some indoor sky diving recently, which was pretty awesome. Hope to do the real thing some day. But I'm scared shitless.

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure if this counts as a skill or how I would go about teaching it, but I'm pretty good at digging stuff up on the web.
