About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to go everywhere and see everything one continent at a time. I love meeting people from all over the world.

ABOUT ME

I read, I cook, I party and I travel. Those are the things I love. I also love meeting people from all over and talking about the world and people.

I like getting to know a place through the eyes of the locals.

Work to live, don't live to work.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw children playing cricket on a sand bank in the river in the shadow of the Taj Mahal. It was a strange experience seeing them from this revered tribute to love and to them it is simply the backyard.
