CURRENT MISSION

To explore the farthest edges of the earth (and maybe beyond!!)..To make amazing friends..To fill up my Travel Trunk with the most thrilling and uplifting of experiences!!!

ABOUT ME

"Plain Living and High Thinking" - This would be a quote which best describes my outlook towards life.
I believe the more I travel and reach out to others, the more I discover myself and grow as a person. Although I took up circumnavigating the planet (or rather the Oceans) as a career, I feel it has become more than just that. It is now a life long quest to keep exploring and (to quote the guy on the bottle!)keep walking....

PHILOSOPHY

"We will never cease our explorations....And in the end of all our exploring, when we finally return to the place where we began, we would have seen it for the very first time!!!" - Eliot

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to offer my back packing experiences and personal travel tips within India coz I genuinely feel India is such a vast cauldron having a complete admixture of experiences that any guidance from a local will help someone coming here for the first time. Would love to travel around the country with fellow Couchsurfers and make amazing friends in the process.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have surfed one couch in Brazil, within a few days of registering on this website.
Apart from that stayed in London for a week with my college buddy. Put up in some Home stays whilst back packing Kerala and Andamans.

Teach, Learn, Share

The following beautiful quote comes to mind : 'There is something good in every person and in that I learn from them'!!.
