About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My goal is to travel as many countries around the world as possible. For most of us, doing so is a wish as it can be expensive to do the normal way. A platform like this gives me a chance to meet people who have the same inspiration so I can also help them achieve their goals too.

Interests

I have a curious list of interest but most revolve around people...I call it enabling People - where I seek to find ways to enable people to achieve . Thats why maybe why other call me a coach/mentor.

Ancient World History and Culture is another fascinating area of interest for me. I think that looking at the world from such lenses gives you a good idea of why the world is the way it is today and why it will continue the way it will be tomorrow. Closely aligned to my interest in history is the study of spirituality minus all the religious trappings.

My lifelong interest is in the area of Continuous Learning whether on a personal level of for others.

In between all of these they culminate with a natural interest in Charity where I do give and share my time and resources to enable others in any meaningful. I once started a Lions Club to but have taken sometime off to focus on other aspects of my life.
A surprising interest of mine is yoga.

Music, Movies, and Books

"Tell me what you read and I'll tell you who you are" is true enough, but I'd know you better if you told me what you reread.” François Mauriac

WellI haven't reread many but some books I always flip through from time to time is The China Study, How to Win Friends and Influence People and Light On Yoga"
