I am an artist and an avid traveller. You can check out my work here: www.akshayverma.portfoliobox.me . I have keen interest in all the kind of arts from painting to photography. I love to meet people who keep similar interests and share life experiences with them. Being an engineer by profession, I am a bit geeky and don't believe in small talks. I want to talk about atoms, alliens, likes, dislikes, sex, religion and philosophy of life. I like people with depth who speak with emotions from a twisted mind

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - Teach not preach
Learn - what interests you not what interests other
Share - experiences, the more you share the better it gets
