My aim in life is to be always honest with myself. I am a pretty open guy. I don't associate myself with any institution or a group of thought as according to me, it steals yours individuality because it's impossible for an individual to agree with all the rules/preachings of that institution. Every individual is a unique combination of thoughts, ideas and energy. I like to express and share what I feel while I experience the miracle of life each day. I love to explore different cultures, places and people in this amazing world as it expands my outlook and perspective towards life. The weather I like the most is cold breeze with a light shining sun. I love to walk in the moonlight and have deep non-superficial conversations with people. My dream destinations where I would like to live atlas for a year are Brazil and Russia.

I am an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science graduate student at IIT Bombay. My interests are very broad and you can have a discussion/debate with me on any topic under the sun. I believe in minimalism and in leaving things better and cleaner than what I started with. You can teach me German, Spanish, Chinese or Italian.

I lived in Trento, Italy this summer for almost 3 months for an internship and visited many cities across Europe during the weekends ending up with lots of memorable experiences. I have been to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia when I lived in Singapore during the summer of 2013 for 2 months. Once I finish my Masters next year, I plan to go on a continuous trip to Europe/South America that lasts for at least 3-4 months.
