About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To save the planet from a deadly alien race from the planet far far away......

ABOUT ME

Hmmm let me see, I live in Utrecht, work in Amsterdam, love to travel, like to dance, interested in cooking, hang out with friends, etcetra., etcetra, blah blah blah. (I guess I need more practice in these type of writing). Trying to beat the boredom. I very much love to travel and when I mean travel, I do not mean your normal summer holidays where you sit and laze in the sun. I just cannot do that (not fond of being tanned anymore than I already am). I like to keep moving, explore, discover, amaze myself with the wonders that surrounds us.

PHILOSOPHY

Two beers is always better than one.
Stay hungry.
Why think about being a millionaire when you can dream about being a billionaire.
Carpe Diem

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurf whenever I travel. I guess this is one of the best ways to understand people and culture. I participate in couch surfing meetings in Utrecht and Amsterdam whenever I get the time.

Interests

Apart from travel, travel and lots of travel, I love cooking, photography, military aviation, numismatics and a long bike ride(both bicycle and motorbike). Would always welcome a refreshing beer and a good talk.......

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Any comedy, action and war flicks. And of course the animations.

Music: Any catchy number and it depends on the mood.

Books: Nothing specific as of now. Would get hooked on if it is interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rode a classic 350cc Royal Enfield motorcycle for more than 2500kms in the Himalayas. I guess it is the next best thing to flying and skydiving.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share thoughts/views/info on culture, experiences, travels, anything and everything. I think the learning will be mutual or atleast it will be an interesting chat. Oh yes, I can cook Indian food. Can give some tips on it

:-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Definitely not my bed. My girlfriend will not be too happy with that sort of sharing :-)

I can share food, Indian to be specific. I can share my time by showing around Utrecht etc etc etc.....

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Italy, Malaysia, Netherlands, Spain, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

India, Netherlands
