About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning about the world one couch at a time

ABOUT ME

A fun loving and open-minded guy, who enjoys meeting people and getting to know their culture, interests and quirks. Always open to new experiences, I have an undying passion for anything that is not normal. I must confess that I am yet to find someone or something that has shocked me as yet. I strongly believe that you must start by trusting someone even if he/she is a stranger, unless there is a reason to otherwise. I am anal about cleanliness and therefore the only thing that I expect from my guests is RESPECT MY CLEAN SPACE.

PHILOSOPHY

"I have say, lets say sixty years to live. Most of my time will be spent working. I have chosen the work I want to do.If I find no joy in it, then I am only condemning myself to sixty years of torture. And I can find joy only if I do my work in the best way possible to me.But the best is a matter of standards-and I set my standards. I inherit nothing, I stand at the end of no tradition. I may perhaps, stand at the beginning of one.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A clean home, Great conversations, some hot food and a happy fun time. I prefer to have independent surfers and will always be available to take them out if I am free. I do travel a lot on work and have hectic weekdays so I prefer to often chill quietly at home and you are welcome to be part of that too.
