Writing about oneself is a bit hard task but let's try. I am different and I am proud of it.
I like discussions. I am a free thinker. Well everybody judge but I don't let my judgements reflect so that conversation keep flowing freely.
I consider myself a Taboo breaker. So if you also love doing same we can share each other's experiences.
I am a bit shy in a group but one on one talks with me can be exciting and funny. I have an intelligent sense of humour, subject of humour being myriad common human experiences.
I like discussing flow of life and how it is connected to flow of universe around us. I can also discuss social, political and economic issues of the day. I am a firm believer of dialectics and fond of analysing paradoxes.
I seek new experiences. For rest, a meet can provide interesting insights.
