About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet interesting people in this journey called 'Life'

ABOUT ME

I am an impulsive, crazy, warm, sociable, and outgoing person. I love traveling, reading, dancing, drinking, pets, chilling out at home, listening to music, watching movies, etc (not necessarily in that order though)

I had an amazing time teaching English in Shanghai ( China), Vietnam (Hanoi) and Cambodia (Siem Reap), and India. Moved back home to India in March last year. I live in Bogota, Colombia now.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and Let live!!
