CURRENT MISSION

To know more and experience more

ABOUT ME

Budding scientist who takes keen interest in literature, movies, music, football, cricket and travelling. I love meeting new people and eating new food.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "WOW! What a ride!"
