CURRENT MISSION

Europe on a shoestring!

ABOUT ME

I'd like to think of myself as a mild intellectual with a penchant for trivia, a slightly lazy person who'll think of an easier way to do something rather than do it the hard way (:P), who simply loves travelling, eating, partying and making merry.

I also love football (soccer), poker, quizzing and a good read. I'm a Manchester United fan. I watch a lot of movies (Hollywood, Bollywood & South Indian cinema) and TV series (latest ones - Game of Thrones, Big Bang Theory, Sherlock, Lie to me, etc.) I love cooking (though I'm a beginner) and experiment very often cooking Indian food!

I listen to a wide range of music and am exploring relationships and what it takes to build and keep strong ones! I'm constantly experimenting about myself. The only constant is that I want to have fun, always.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's one big jigsaw that's been mixed up very skilfully. The fun lies in putting the pieces together and seeing what we end up with!
