Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Tamil. I’m open to learning anything that you can teach. And I can share my thoughts and stories :)
I’m a huge film buff and I can talk for hours about films. So you may probably come to know of some hitherto unknown, unheard of movies.

What I Can Share with Hosts

With hosts, I can share interesting stories. I'm interested in mythological stories. I'm a film buff, a wannabe writer, and into visual arts. I believe I have a good musical taste and I'm always happy to talk at length about music, movies, books, culture, other arts, and philosophy.
I'm a generally helpful person. I'm tidy and will help hosts clean up while I stay.
