CURRENT MISSION

What is a mission?

ABOUT ME

I've four principal passions - Reading, watching movies, writing and travelling

Most of my travelling until recently has been within India...the first time I ventured out was in 2009 when I visited France & Italy. Since then, I've been to China, Mongolia, Russia and most recently, Turkey! Istanbul is a stunning city! If anyone reading this has work to offer for me in Istanbul, please, do not hesitate!

I am all for useless and interesting conversations - over beer, over a cup of coffee, in a pub, on the road, in the house, at the bus stop, wherever...
