About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much as possible from as many sources as possible

ABOUT ME

Friendly, fun loving and peaceful. Lazy and a master at the art of procrastination.

PHILOSOPHY

Too lazy to be ambitious,
I let the world take care of itself.
Ten days' worth of rice in my bag;
a bundle of twigs by the fireplace.
Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment?
Listening to the night rain on my roof,
I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This lifetime has been one great adventure out of which i feel there has never been a dull or event-less day.

I can teach Malayalam which is my mother tongue along with Hindi. Also i can give a basic introduction to Kerala cuisine.
