Born and brought up India, having lived in most of the states here have got me embrace the essence of different cultures, food, languages, society, the beauty of sharing, the meaning of love, and moral values. Have traveled/stayed all the places most like local.

Things I enjoy the most is, making the best out of time/situation, Eg. when I'm not working for a living, I like doing things which makes life more meaningful and enjoyable like:

- Deep talks with friends about life and travelling.

- Love going into nature, doing holistic stuff, smelling fresh air, meeting and appreciating genuine eyes (human, birds, animals, trees, flowers)
- Read, learn, share and re-read :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Very small thing, but never felt this before. I offered a chocolate to a 3-4 y/o girl at Imam Reza a.s. holy shrine (Iran) and in return she gave me a beautiful smile with those small eyes half closed. A pure feeling. I can never forget that moment.🥰

Climbed many mountains!
